In one story, Venus (the godess of love) became to jealous of the beautiful mortal Psyche that she instructed her son Cupid (also known as Eros) to make Psyche fall in love with a beast. But, Cupid beame so infatuated with Psyche that he married her himself -- on the one condition that she not gaze on his godly face.

Afer searching the world for her lover, Psyche was eventually reunited with Cupid and became immortal herself.
