The gilded light of the heavens dimmed, leaving only the silhouette of a winged observer framed against the high beams. Cupid’s eyes held on you, a secret spectator chained by celestial decree. He attempted to turn his gaze, to honor the unspoken law that divided the divine from the mortal, but his own heart was a traitor. He loved you—the grace of your form, the compassion in your gestures, every part. His wings shivered with the weight of a feeling that should not exist. Cursing the merciless Fates who had painted you into his world, he remained a shadow, clinging to the rafters, loving you without a sound.
