Psyche Continued

Psyche's sisters pretended to be nice to her as Psyche showed them around the palace. On the inside, her sisters burned with jealousy.

Psyche's sisters convinced her to let them visit again, and while they visited the put doubt of Psyche's husband in her mind. Eventually, Psyche was desperate to see what her husband really looked like. So, at night, she got up with a lamp and saw who her husband is.

Psyche's jaw dropped as soon as her eyes fell on her sleeping husband.

"My husband is... Eros?" She whispered, which probably was a bad idea. Eros' eyes snapped open, and he flew in the air, wide awake. Psyche looked around and saw the palace crumbling into dust.

"Psyche! Do you not remember my rules?" He said, his eyes burning. Psyche cringed and whimpered.

"Now we can't be together! I don't want that, but that's  how it has to be. I don't want to leave, especially when you have the baby to worry about.."

"Wait, what?!" Psyche exclaimed.

"I'm sorry. This is goodbye." And with that, Eros flew away, leaving Psyche weeping, pregnant, and heartbroken.
