Everynight she heard someone singing,but she can't see anything .She doesn't understand everything but one rule from her husband:never see his face. He want Psyche's trust,and she did at least so far.
One night she lights the candle,seeing a handsome man with golden wings. She is very shocked beause of her husband is a godlike , then Psyche wants to check he is the real person or just a shadow.
But Cupid is very disappointed to his wife.
Beause of Psyche,Cupid must to leave her,
