Cherubs
From Super-wiki
Castiel: your people call them "Cupid"...what human myth has mistaken for "Cupid" is actually a lower order of angel. Technically it's a cherub, third-class.

There are dozens of Cherubs on Earth as of now, according to Castiel, which humans refer to as "Cupid". Cherubs are very low on the Celestial Chain of Command, more specifically ranked as third class angels. John and Mary’s marriage was 'top priority' on Heaven's agenda. Their marriage was orchestrated by a Cherub. And apparently, they couldn't stand one another, but Michael had a cupid interfere, which resulted in their marriage.
Characteristics
Cherubs have unique powers, such as love manipulation and superhuman durability. It remains unknown as to whether or not cherubs need vessels. And how they manifest is also unclear. They are weaker than Angels and Archangels. Angels can also read their minds.
