LOGINHE WAS MY PROFESSOR. NOW HE'S MY DARKEST OBSESSION. Professor Adrian Vale has three rules: never lose control, never mix business with pleasure, and never touch a student. Unfortunately for him, I'm about to make him break all three. He's thirty-seven, dangerously handsome, and the one man on campus who refuses to give me what I want. But I see the way his jaw tightens when I tease him. The way his eyes follow me when he thinks I'm not looking. And the way he fights a desire he's terrified to admit. So I push. He resists. Until one forbidden moment changes everything. Now, our secret is becoming harder to hide. My jealous ex wants revenge, suspicious eyes are watching us, and one wrong move could destroy the career Adrian has spent years building. He says I'm a mistake. I say he hasn't seen anything yet. But when our little game turns into an obsession neither of us can control, the consequences become far more dangerous than either of us imagined. **He's my professor. I'm his forbidden temptation.** And if the world discovers our secret, we might lose everything. But what happens when the man who taught me all the rules becomes the one temptation I refuse to give up?
View MoreThe confrontation with Rory’s parents was every bit as explosive and heart-wrenching as they had feared it would be. Dominic insisted on being the one to break the news, arranging a private conversation with her father during a carefully planned family dinner at the family home. The truth came pouring out in a rush of honest, raw words—the instant, overwhelming attraction the moment Rory walked into his office, the slow-burn tension that built despite every rule and moral boundary, the genuine love that had grown between them despite the age gap, the forbidden nature of their relationship, and the external threats they had faced together while protecting each other. Her father’s reaction was visceral and immediate. Shock turned to anger, then to a deep, painful sense of betrayal. “You were like a son to me,” he said, voice breaking as he looked at Dominic. “I trusted you with my daughter’s future, and this is what you do?” Rory stepped forward, fierce and unapologetic despite th
The separation had been pure hell for both of them—a test that pushed their love to the breaking point and beyond. Rory moved through her days at Voss Publishing like a shadow of herself. She smiled politely in meetings, delivered solid work on her manuscripts, and avoided the knowing glances from colleagues who sensed something was different. But inside, she was unraveling. Every familiar corner of the office triggered memories that hit like physical blows—the conference room where his foot had teased her under the table, the elevator where he’d pinned her against the wall and whispered exactly what he wanted to do to her, her own desk where late-night messages from him had left her squirming and desperate. Nights were the worst. She would lie in her small apartment bed, body aching with unmet need, fingers slipping between her thighs as she replayed every intimate moment in vivid detail. The way Dominic’s experienced mouth had devoured her, tongue and fingers working in perfect ha
The decision to face the threat head-on brought a temporary peace, but peace was a luxury they couldn’t afford for long. The very next week, the anonymous sender struck again—this time with a more direct warning. Another email to Dominic, this one including a screenshot of a draft message ready to be sent to Rory’s father with the incriminating photos attached. The demand was clear: *End it completely or I hit send. No contact. One week.* Dominic’s protective instincts went into overdrive. “We have to create distance,” he told Rory in a hushed, urgent conversation in his locked office. “Just for a little while. Until I can trace this bastard and neutralize the threat. I can’t risk your family, your career, everything you’ve worked for.” Rory’s heart shattered at the words, but she saw the logic through her tears. “I hate this,” she whispered, clinging to him. “But I trust you. Just… don’t take too long. I don’t know how to breathe without you anymore.” The separation was agony. Fo
The anonymous threat had turned their once-thrilling secret affair into a high-stakes game of survival. Every day at Voss Publishing felt like walking a tightrope—Rory smiling through meetings while sensing the whispers behind her back, Dominic maintaining his commanding CEO facade while his eyes tracked her with a mix of love, fear, and barely contained possessiveness. The power dynamic that had always existed between them—the experienced older man and the ambitious young woman—now carried new weight. He was her boss, her mentor, her lover, and the one person who could destroy or save everything she had built. By Friday, the tension had become unbearable. Dominic arranged for them to meet at their favorite discreet hotel, but this time the evening started with confrontation rather than immediate passion. The moment the door closed, the argument erupted. “We can’t keep pretending the threat doesn’t exist,” Dominic said, pacing the luxurious suite, his broad shoulders tense under hi
