Cupid.
After a long, and arduous path, Cupid and Psyche are eventually united. Jupiter pleaded the cause of the lovers so well with Venus (Cupid's mother) that she consented (she had been opposed to Psyche). At this, Mercury brought Psyche up to the heavenly assembly where she was married to Cupid.

Is psyche good or evil?
Basically, Psyche is good. Long story short, Cupid accidentally falls in love with her when Venus sends him to kill Psyche (Venus hates Psyche, a mortal, for being too beautiful). Venus is angry, and places a curse on Psyche. The curse makes certain that no man will ever marry her, despite her beauty. Cupid is angry and refuses to make anyone fall in love for as long as the curse continues. This means that people stop praising Venus. Eventually Venus caves to Cupid, allowing him to have one thing. He asks to have Psyche. Venus agrees. Meanwhile, down on earth, Psyche's parents abandoned her on a mountain, as advised by an oracle. The wind carries her away to a valley. At night, her groom arrives. The groom is Cupid, but Psyche doesn't know that. She becomes pregnant, still not knowing who her husband is. Cupid wants to wait to tell her who he is. Psyche's jealous sisters convince her that her husband is a serpent and that she should kill it while it's sleeping, but Psyche turns on a light and realizes who her husband really is. Cupid flees. Psyche gets back at her sisters by telling them that Cupid wants to marry them and that they should jump off of a mountain and the wind will take them to him. They both jump to their death. Psyche then enlists the help of several goddesses to find Cupid. They all tell her that she must consult Venus. Venus gives her several tasks to complete in order to be allowed to see Cupid again. She completes all of the "impossible" tasks, such as sorting seeds and fetching golden wool, with the help of various animals. After the last task, which involved going into the Underworld to get a box of beauty, Cupid begs Zeus to intervene and allow them to marry. He agrees, and Cupid and Psyche, who is made immortal, have a child together. Eventually, Psyche and Venus make amends. So, Psyche is good, unless you're asking Venus, who hated Psyche. You can also learn from this answer that it is really hard to briefly summarize Greek myths.
