Kate was terrified when the maids tried to keep her inside the vast mansion. She needed to leave as soon as possible, and she couldn't skip her classes. Missing even a single class could jeopardize her scholarship and possibly force her to drop out.
Today marked the beginning of her new semester, with numerous new professors set to introduce themselves and discuss the semester's curriculum. How could she afford to miss these important introductions?
She left the mansion and had to walk quite a distance to catch a taxi. The taxi driver appeared to be kind and drove faster when she requested it.
Kate checked her watch and then dialed a number on her cell phone. "Boss, I can't make it for the performance today," she said in a tired voice.
"Why?" Miss M asked, as Kate's one-day performance had greatly boosted her business.
"Well, I suddenly got an evening class with a new professor, and I also found a potential donor for Jack," Kate explained honestly. She even mentioned that she might have to work for the donor in the future, if necessary.
“I am really happy that you got a donor. But I still wish for you to come back and perform here.” Miss M said and hung up the call.
Kate took a deep breath as the taxi halted in front of University Gate No. 6. It was the quickest way for her to get to class, and she was determined not to miss her attendance.
She hurried through the gate and ran as fast as possible, reaching the classroom just in time. However, as she was about to enter the classroom, her head collided with something hard, causing her to wince in pain.
Kate lowered her head and rubbed her forehead as she realized she had bumped into someone.
"I'm sorry. I'm really sorry," she repeated as she looked up and noticed the person she had collided with.
"It's okay. Are you okay?" the person in front of her asked. Kate found the voice familiar as she slowly raised her gaze.
She observed that the person was wearing a royal blue tuxedo. 'Could it be him?' she wondered and looked up to confirm that it was indeed the man she needed right now.
.
"Kate?" Aziel inquired, furrowing his brows. "Why are you here?" he asked in a cold tone.
He had expected her to leave his mansion once he did, but he didn't anticipate that she would follow him to university. This wasn't a good situation.
Despite his desire for women’s bodies, he had never crossed boundaries with his students. He had maintained a clean and professional life at the university. So when he saw Kate in front of him, he couldn't help but wonder, "Is she this desperate?"
"I... I..." Kate struggled to speak, panting heavily after her long run. Her chest heaved up and down as she caught her breath.
Aziel strongly wished he could just tell her to go back, but when his eyes fell on Kate’s heaving bosom up and down, his eyes fixated there.
Kate was dressed in a loose, simple top and a skirt, both soaked with sweat, making her face look wet. Her face turned bright red, and even her neck and ears began to flush with color.
The more Aziel gazed at her flushed appearance, the more he desired to tear off her top and see what lay beneath. Even though he had glimpsed it at the bar, he had been quite far away. Now, she was just a few inches from him, but he had to control his urges.
Meanwhile, Kate couldn't help but recall what she had witnessed just a few hours ago. The man standing in front of her in a tuxedo had been completely naked a few hours ago. She wished she could find a hole to hide in, but she had nowhere to go.
"Fine, if you don't want to talk, then come with me," Aziel said, grabbing her wrist and leading her to his office.
"Sir," Kate finally spoke, still lost in her thoughts, until he began to drag her. She was unsure why Aziel was there or where he was taking her.
Aziel took her into his office and locked the door. "I am going to be late for the first time in my life, all because of you," he complained.
"What?" Kate replied, attempting to free herself from his grasp. "You are the one who's making me late," she retorted. Not only had he shamelessly appeared before her completely naked, but now he was also accusing her of causing his own delay.
No matter how much she needed his help, she couldn't let him degrade her.
"What?" Aziel looked at her in shock, expecting her to apologize for causing him a delay since she was the one who needed his help.
"What 'what'?" Kate said as she stepped a few steps away from him. "I knew I needed your help, but could you not have appeared before me like this?"
Aziel looked at her amusingly and wondered, 'Wasn't it you who was following me here?'
"Now, please let me go, or else I will miss my class," Kate said, and suddenly a realization dawned upon her.
She found herself in her professor's office, but how had this person brought her here? She wondered, looked at him slowly, and then lowered her head, asking in a quiet voice, "A-are you my professor for this semester?"
"What?" Aziel looked at her in surprise and asked, "Are you here for the evening class?"
"I-I am Kate Wood, a second-year scholarship student," Kate said in a hushed voice, concerned that if he were indeed her professor, he might take advantage of the situation. Unfortunately, that was precisely what Aziel had in mind.
"So, you are my student," Aziel smirked and advanced towards her, causing her to step back until her back met the wall.
"Jia, you are right here, and I have been searching for you everywhere!" He whispered, lowering his head toward her and bringing his lips dangerously close to hers, making Kate’s heart thump faster.
Aziel’s POVHer taste was intoxicating— sweet defiance mixed with a raw, unyielding passion that only made me want her more. My lips pressed against hers, claiming every part of her, consuming the heat between us.Kate trembled in my arms, her body flush against mine, soft and pliant, but there was a fire in her eyes that I loved to stoke. She could resist all she wanted, deny the terms of the contract she’d been so adamant about— but this? This hunger between us? She couldn’t resist that. Not for long.I broke the kiss, just enough to brush my lips against hers, teasing her as her breath came in ragged gasps. Her body was already melting against me, betraying the fight in her eyes. “You taste like defiance, Kate,” I murmured, my mouth grazing her skin, tasting the softness of her neck. “But I wonder… how long will it last?”Her heartbeat thundered in her chest, and I could feel it beneath my fingers as they slid under her blouse, grazing her delicate skin. She gasped, her breath hitch
Kate’s POVHis kiss consumed me— there was no escape from the heat that surged between us. Aziel's grip on my waist tightened, pulling me closer until my body was flush against his, the hard lines of his chest pressing into me. The contract lay forgotten on the table, but I couldn’t forget the terms I had just agreed to. The terms I had denied. Yet here I was, caught in the storm of his desire, melting into him like I couldn’t stop myself.Aziel broke the kiss for a brief moment, his lips brushing against mine, teasing me as I tried to catch my breath. "You taste like defiance, Kate," he murmured against my skin, his mouth trailing down my neck. "But I wonder… how long will it last?"My heart hammered against my ribs as his hand slid under my blouse, his fingers grazing the sensitive skin beneath.My breath hitched when his thumb brushed against my breast, sending sparks through me. I wanted to protest, to pull away and assert the boundaries I had just set, but my body betrayed me— ev
Kate’s POVMy fingers trembled as I held the pen, hovering over the line that would bind me to him. The weight of the contract pressed down on me like a suffocating blanket. I could feel Aziel's eyes on me, piercing through every shred of my willpower, pushing me to the edge.I was about to sign it. I was ready to give him everything he wanted— my submission, my body, my dignity— all for Jack. For my brother, so that he could live the life he desired."Before you sign," Aziel’s voice cut through the silence, smooth and authoritative, "you should know something."I looked up at him, confusion mingling with the tension swirling between us. His smirk was still there, but there was something deeper in his eyes— something almost… amused."You don’t have to accept all the terms," he said, stepping closer, his broad frame towering over me. "You have the right to deny what you don’t like."My heart skipped a beat. What? Is that possible?He leaned down, his breath hot against my ear. "You can
Kate’s POVMy hands trembled slightly as I took the red file from Aziel. His smirk remained, that infuriatingly confident expression as if he knew exactly what was running through my mind. My heart pounded in my chest, but I forced myself to focus on what really mattered— my brother. Jack needed this. He needed Aziel, and I was willing to do anything to save him, no matter how humiliating or degrading it might be.I opened the file slowly, my eyes scanning the crisp, neat text. The legal jargon blurred for a moment as my pulse raced, but then I saw it— the section that laid out Aziel's conditions.Section 3: Special Provisions for Kate MorganMy stomach twisted as I read the first line.1. You will submit to me whenever I call for you. No excuses, no delays. If I desire you, you will come to me immediately.The words burned into my mind, and I swallowed hard. This wasn’t just about a bone marrow donation— this was about control, about dominance. Aziel wanted to own me. He wanted more
Aziel's POVI leaned back in my chair, watching as Kate hesitantly took the red file from my hands. Her fingers trembled slightly, though whether it was from frustration or anticipation, I couldn’t tell. Her body still radiated heat, desire swirling just beneath the surface. I could see it in her eyes, even though she was trying so desperately to focus on her brother, on the reason she came to me in the first place.But I hadn’t forgotten. Neither had she. Last night was just the beginning, a taste of what I could offer her— of what I could take from her.In the past, I had never been this patient with anyone! But this woman in front of me… makes me want to savour every last bit of her taste!"Open it," I said smoothly, my voice a low rumble that filled the small space of my office. "You will find everything you need to help your brother in there."Her eyes flickered with hesitation, but she finally unclasped the file and began reading. I watched as her expression shifted, confusion s
Kate's POVI woke up with a heavy sigh, frustration swirling inside me like a storm. The sun streamed through the blinds, but the warmth did nothing to chase away the tension in my body. My skin still tingled from the memory of Aziel’s touch, but the anger and annoyance that came with it burned hotter than any desire. How dare he leave me like that? On edge, desperate, and unsatisfied.I could still feel the ache between my legs, a constant reminder of how close he had taken me to the brink, only to walk away, leaving me unsatisfied and unable to make a release.The audacity. So what if he was the man I was about to make a deal with? How can he play me this way?I clenched my fists, wanting to scream, but instead, I groaned and forced myself out of bed. There was no time to dwell on last night— my brother needed me. He had been sick for days, and despite everything, he was my priority.Even if my thoughts kept drifting back to Aziel, to the way his lips brushed against my skin, the dar
