《Cupid's Match : CUPID'S MATCH BOOK 1》Chapter 1
Advertisement
Dear Lila,
I am contacting you on behalf of The Cupids Matchmaking Service.
You will not have heard of us but we are an organization that works behind the scenes of society, identifying each person's perfect match.
Usually we would not contact our clients. We prefer to work in secrecy - setting up the ideal environment for the two matches to have a chance encounter.
Recently, however, we ran your details through our system and...well...in your case...
We think you'd better come in.
Please respond at your earliest convenience.
Yours Urgently,
The Cupids Matchmaking Service
Hi! I'm Lauren! It's so nice to meet you!
Welcome to the magical and mythological world of Cupid's Match!
It's a world filled with crime-lord sirens, cupid hitmen, magic arrows, high school drama, and a mischievous love god whom our main character, Lila, can't quite stop herself from falling for...!
I started writing Cupid's Match on Wattpad back in 2015 and I had so much fun writing it. But I should warn you. . . this Wattpad version of Cupid's Match is a FIRST DRAFT! You are reading the original, raw, rough version which means that alongside the general cupid chaos, you find spelling and grammar errors.
(Also - sometimes you might THINK there is a spelling mistake, but actually it's because I'm British! I live in London and we spell things differently to America over here! Where are you from? Let me know in the comments!)
Due to it being a first draft you will also encounter some general weirdness in terms of plot, characters, structure, and story development.
The Cupid's Match trilogy has also been published in French (Maudit Cupidon) and German (Everlasting Love). Book one is available in Spanish under the name 'El Match de Cupido'!
I will always leave this version here on Wattpad for you to read because - even though it's a very rough version of the story - it holds a special place in my heart, and Wattpad readers helped shape it into what it is today.

But if you're interested in the published version, or you just generally want to know what I'm up to, come follow me here on Wattpad (click ---> ), or on social media for updates.
I'm on
For any fellow Wattpadders looking for tips on how to get reads, I wrote down some of the things that helped me when I was starting out with Cupid's Match. You can check them out in the tips books available on my profile. Or head over to my blog where I post writing advice (www.LaurenPalphreyman.com/blog).
Hope you enjoy the story!
love,
Lauren

Viceroy's Pride
This story could be about the Tellask Empire, ruler of a thousand suns and faced with imminent peril at the hands of the Orakh hordes. It could be about Paltai Amberell, the scion of a noble elven House, fallen upon hard times and seeking to find the key that will restore his family's name and save the Empire itself. It could be the story of his voidship, The Viceroy's Pride, powered by magic and crewed by a team of crack marines as they search for adventure and the solution to the Empire's myriad problems. Instead, this is the story of Daniel Thrush, human electrical engineer, befuddled researcher and survivor of the debacle that was first contact with a spacefaring civilization. Due to a combination of luck, magic, hard work, and more luck he is thrust into the center of events as Earth is shoved onto a much larger stage rife with semi-immortal elves and magical kingdoms that predate the Earthly invention of agriculture. Earth is outnumbered, and we have precisely one wizard. Dan. He's not very good at it, but he's going to have to learn in a hurry or watch everything he knows get torn apart by massive spacefaring empires straight from the pages of a fantasy novel. ---------- Some readers have noted that the MC tends to be weak willed and pushed around a bit. A significant portion of the story is his character growth into not being a pushover (i.e. him being passive is in the early chapters on purpose). I'm just including this caveat/warning to make sure that readers aren't surprised/upset and that they stick with it until he learns to stand up for himself. His arc begins to crystallize around chapters 25-27. If that's too long to wait, I get it, I'm just trying to do my due diligence and warn you that the character development is a bit of a slow burn. This is NOT a harem novel. Nothing against them, just not what it is. --------- Updates Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday Feel free to bother me on our discord- Discord!

Cycles of Ruin
Civilizations rise and fall. Kith build them up and monsters, led by powerful dungeon keepers, bring them to ruin. For three thousand years the cycle has been maintained by the Guild of Chaos and its endless hordes of minions who—in absence of their long lost creators—have taken it upon themselves to keep the realms of the universe in balance. The Guild has grown efficient at this task, but some among its ranks have begun to ponder the utility of a universe that has been robbed of the very possibility of change. Basil von Doom is one such dungeon keeper working for the Guild, leading an army of loyal minions from one conquest to the next; burning civilizations and sifting through the ruins in search of forbidden knowledge that the races of kith were never meant to possess. But having spent more than half a century in pursuit of glory and fame—trying to live up to the legacy of his father—Basil has grown indifferent towards his work. Desperate for a worthy challenge, but bound by his duties as a dungeon keeper, he has turned his mind towards uncovering the ultimate fate of the previous master of his house and the secrets that were buried with him. Now the young Master of House Doom must balance his growing interest in pursuing the trail of his father with the responsibilities that come with running a dungeon in service to the Guild of Chaos. To remain in good standing with the Guild, Basil has even accepted the task of mentoring an apprentice dungeon keeper, a young succubus named Elnora. It is at the tail end of her apprenticeship that the story begins; with a civilization poised to fall—its greatest heroes gathering for one last assault on the heart of darkness—and Basil striking up a conversation with his apprentice that will set into motion the unraveling of the universe. ***This is a rewrite and continuation of my story that was first posted on RoyalRoad a few years ago.
