The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Midnight visitor
KaidenI stared at the ceiling, my fingers curled into the thin hospital sheets, my body aching with every shallow breath. The bruises along my ribs throbbed in dull protest, and the cut above my brow still burned every time I moved too suddenly. But none of that compared to the fire simmering beneath my skin all caused by one person.Sage.I clenched my jaw. I still couldn’t believe it no, I didn’t want to believe it. He had sent those bastards after me. Had given them my location, knowing full well what would happen. He probably wanted to give me a taste of the beatings he took but sending them my location?Was he trying to kill me?The thought made my stomach churn, though I already knew the answer. No, he wouldn’t have gone that far. Sage was cruel, manipulative, but he wasn’t reckless. If he wanted me dead, I wouldn’t be here now, lying in this hospital bed with bruises instead of a bullet in my skull.That didn’t make it any better.I swallowed, my throat tight.And all because

KaidenYou would think I would be slowed down due to my injuries but when you are running for your life, there is no limit to what you can do.I took the alleyways and just kept running till my breath got winded. I was exhausted and I was angry. It’s already morning and I had to find somewhere to go.Sage.He definitely told them where I was but how did he know where I was? I was still hurt from knowing his diabolical plan to get rid of me but I thought he would let it go by now seeing the state I was in the hospital.I was in no fucking state to fight anyone and I couldn’t even call Martin since he was in the process of investigating who is behind all of this.My ribs still ached from the beating, but it was nothing compared to the sound of my heart breaking every second.Sage had sent those thugs after me.I still couldn't wrap my head around it. I had always known he was possessive when it came to the professor, but this? It was calculated, ruthless. It made me wonder just how far

KaidenAfter their little show of affection, I decided to leave before things got heated.The truth was that I left because I was beginning to get rock hard. It must be the drugs or a trauma response from what I have been through these few days because there was no way in hell that I was hard from that.If anything, I should be mad because Sage disregarded my confession and still went ahead to kiss someone else in front of me. Or was it the professor who completely ignored me like he hadn’t then confusing my head a lot these days.Seriously?When did things became a clusterfuck?I made the decision to go to the police to report this case. While Martin was doing his thing, it was taking a lot of time and I was getting hurt during that time. I couldn’t take it anymore.I stood at the counter, arms crossed, waiting for an officer to acknowledge me.A man in uniform finally walked over, a tired expression on his face. “Can I help you?”“Yeah,” I said, shifting slightly. “I need to file a

Kaiden The first thing I noticed when I woke up was the dull pounding in my skull. My limbs felt heavy, like they were made of lead, and a strange numbness settled in my fingers. The second thing I noticed was that I couldn’t move. Blinking against the blur clouding my vision, I lifted my head slightly, only to feel resistance. My wrists were bound to the headboard of the hotel bed with what felt like, what the hell? his belt. I turned my head, and there he was. Ryan. The twink I had brought back with me was sitting on the edge of the bed, clutching his phone in trembling hands. His fingers were unsteady as he fumbled with the knot, his breath coming in uneven gasps. I could tell instantly, he wasn’t a professional at this. He was scared. He was probably paid off to do this when he wasn’t even okay with doing it. I would roll my eyes if I was capable of doing so. “What…” My throat was dry, my voice sluggish. “What the hell are you doing?” He flinched, his grip tig

SageThe professor took me home, and I was still reeling from the way he had kissed me in front of Kaiden. His arm wrapped around my waist as he pulled me close to his body. I felt his need for me and I hoped he understood my need. It wasn’t just a kiss, I think it was a claim or a message passed to Kaiden to stay away from me. It made my stomach twist in something dangerously close to satisfaction. Maybe things were okay between us after all. Maybe this was him proving that I mattered more.After what happened between us, maybe he has accepted it. I grinned, there was no need for us to fight about it anymore.I followed him inside, feeling a little lighter than I had in days. He had chosen me, hadn’t he?I was already mentally preparing myself to take off my clothes the second we got comfortable. But the moment we were alone, he turned to me with a calculating look in his eyes.“What did Kaiden want from you?” He demanded.The question caught me off guard. His voice was calm, but

KaidenI woke up later after coming back home, my body was morning, my body heavy with exhaustion. The past few days had drained me in ways I hadn’t anticipated, and since I wasn’t working right now because of my injuries, I had nothing pressing to get out of bed for.I couldn’t even talk about how I felt when Sage subtly neglected me after I confessed to him. He was the whole reason I picked up that twink, to forget about him.I almost got in trouble and to think I want to continue pursuing him. I honestly don’t know what’s wrong with me. The kind of hold Sage has on me makes me worry sometimes.I laid there for a while, scrolling lazily through my phone, when a message came in.Sage: Where are you?I frowned, rereading the text. My first instinct was to ignore it, but after a moment of hesitation, I typed out my location and hit send.I wasn’t sure why he was texting me all of a sudden. After everything that had happened, the betrayal, the mixed signals, the professor’s possessive

KaidenI didn’t want to hear it.I couldn’t hear it.The betrayal burned, eating away at everything I thought I felt for him.I squeezed my eyes shut. I did like Sage. I had been certain of that. But knowing what he had done… I didn’t know if I could just move past it.I turned to the professor. My voice was cold. “Was this the reason you brought me here?” I asked. “To get rid of me like this?”The professor’s lips curled into a smirk. “Would it have worked?”I didn’t answer.Because I honestly didn’t know.I didn’t want to know or believe what was happening here. My mind was still reeling from Sage’s confession. I had to imagine what the two of them had discussed to even bring me here. I was such a fool, I came here willingly while they had planned what they wanted from me.He had betrayed me.He had almost gotten me killed.And now, here he was, standing in front of me with tears in his eyes, trying to explain it all away.I was about to say something—something angry, something tha

SageI closed my eyes to wish away this dream. I wanted this to happen even though I was pretending. We had moved to the bedroom under the professor’s command. I wasn’t sure how Kaiden obediently did just as the professor asked but I was glad it happened.The professor was finally giving me an opportunity to prove myself and I sincerely hoped that Kaiden would calm down and listen. He still loved me. That’s why he was so hurt when I confessed to sending those people to his hotel room. They weren’t going to kill him just to rough him up a bit.I finally opened my eyes and it immediately locked into Kaiden’s glaring ones, he had a look of desire in his eyes that I was sure mirrored mine and I immediately wanted his hands on me, and I was about to voice my need when he sighed and bent down, capturing my lips with his. A satisfied shudder shook my body as his lips traced over mine before his tongue dipped inside to sample my mouth. I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him down u

The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Everybody leaves
SageThe words the professor had spoken stayed with me like the aftertaste of something bitter I couldn’t spit out. He wanted to involve the police. He wanted to bring Raines into this. It was as if he didn’t hear a single thing I said, that he couldn’t accept what was right in front of him. Kaiden had left.Again.We stood in the middle of his living room, the air thick with the kind of tension that always came before something broke.I still felt like I needed to say something to him. He had spent the entire car ride grumbling.He didn’t say anything out loud but it was pretty obvious with the way he was clenching his hands on the steering wheel.The second we got home, I cornered him.“You should take it,” I said finally, crossing my arms.He stared at me, baffled. “Take what?”“The truth. Take it. Accept that he’s gone. That this isn’t some elaborate kidnapping or some villain from a noir film dragging him off. Kaiden left. He chose to. You seem to be mad at me for voicing out the
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Gone with the suitcase
SageThe car ride was dead silent. The only sound was the quiet hum of the engine and the occasional click of the blinker as the professor followed Kaiden’s manager through the streets. I sat in the passenger seat, my legs bouncing, nerves coiling tighter with every turn the black car ahead of us made.The professor’s knuckles were white against the steering wheel. He hadn’t spoken since we pulled out of the parking lot, and I didn’t try to break the silence. It was thick with tension, too thick to cut through with words that didn’t feel entirely useless right now.And I didn’t know what to say to him. Finally, the black car pulled into the driveway of a large, modern townhouse on the outskirts of the city. The place was all sharp edges and sterile lighting. A place for people who wanted to look rich, not feel anything.I knew Kaiden was making money for his manager but I didn’t think it was to this extent.Wow.The professor parked across the street, cut the engine, and stepped out
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend The silence between us
SageI woke up with a tight knot sitting right in the middle of my chest. The apartment was quiet. No sign of Kaiden, and the sun had already climbed halfway through the sky.The sheets beside me were cold. He hadn’t come home last night.Rubbing sleep from my eyes, I wandered out into the living room, expecting maybe a note, maybe Kaiden sitting on the couch eating cereal out of the box like he did when he was too tired to pretend to be put together. But it wasn’t Kaiden I found.The professor sat there, hunched on the edge of the couch, elbows resting on his knees, fingers loosely interlocked. He didn’t even glance at me when I entered.“You’re up early,” I said cautiously, voice still raspy with sleep.His eyes lifted to me. They looked tired, more than tired. Hollow. “Did Kaiden come home last night?”I shook my head. “No. I thought he went to see you. He got your message, didn’t he?”His lips pressed into a line. “I went to his condo. He wasn’t there. I waited. His car was gone.
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend The blue trick
KaidenMy phone buzzed again.I glanced down at the screen through the strobing lights of the after-party. The text was from the professor. “Are you home?” Something about him checking up tugged at my heartstrings. My chest tightened and I wanted to go home even more.Being here was challenging for me. I wasn’t home. I was at the kind of party that used to thrill me. A rooftop venue in the city, neon lights flickering against polished glasses, expensive perfume clouding the air, and beautiful people, too many beautiful people. Some I recognized from the runway. Others from TV. All of them orbiting around free liquor and someone else’s fame.I would have been delighted to have all these people around me,But none of them looked like Sage.None of them carried themselves like the professor.I leaned against the balcony railing, letting the air hit my face. I didn’t belong here. Not really. Not tonight.Months ago, I would have been thrilled to be here but right now, I wanted to be hom
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend The devil in silk
KaidenThe clink of glassware and soft instrumental music floated through the private dining room, but I barely noticed any of it. My attention was locked on the man seated across from me, Desmond, the so-called sponsor, though I knew better now. He wasn’t just another businessman looking to capitalize on talent. He was the distributor. The puppeteer behind the chaos circling my life.Martin couldn’t stop talking. “You know, this whole thing… it’s a damn miracle. The sponsor paid for the new condo in full. Quietly. No credit checks, no delays. Even Sage’s outfit, hell, the professor’s tux too, he took care of it all. Who does that?”He kept saying all the things that I didn’t want to hear. Didn’t he know that I was terrified?I kept my gaze fixed on Desmond. He smiled faintly, swirling his wine like he had all the time in the world. I didn't trust that smile. It was too smooth, too practiced like everything about him.I was skeptical to be here even though I had no choice. I didn’t w
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Meet my sponsor
KaidenWhen we got home, Sage was still trembling in my arms.I guided him gently to the living room couch and sat with him, wrapping the throw blanket from the armrest over his shoulders. He hadn't spoken much since we left the boutique. The only sounds were the occasional hitch in his breath and the way his fingers clutched the fabric of my shirt like he needed something solid to anchor him.He really was scared, I can’t imagine how terrified he must have been. Hearing that so close to him must have pushed him off the edge. I hated seeing him that way.“I’ve got you,” I murmured. “You’re safe now.”He leaned into me, his body slowly relaxing as he drew warmth from my presence.“Kaiden,” he whispered, eyes fluttering. “I don’t understand why this is happening. Why me?”“Because you matter,” I said. “More than you know. And I swear, whoever’s behind this won’t get close to you. Not while I’m breathing.”Eventually, his head dropped to my shoulder, and his breathing slowed. I held him
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Changing room
SageIt was entirely unfair for someone like Amir to be real. Tall, lean, with chiseled features that looked like they belonged on a movie poster rather than in a security file, and a voice that dripped with smooth, practiced calm. He was the kind of handsome that made your thoughts scatter just a little if you looked at him for too long.And I was doing exactly that.“Mr. Amir, right?” I asked, extending a hand, hoping my voice didn’t tremble like my fingers did. “I’m Sage.”He nodded, his grip firm but not overbearing. “I know. It’s a pleasure.”He smiled and I don’t mean the empty kind people give when they’re on duty. It was warm. Polite. And it made my stomach flip in a way I hadn’t expected.But as he turned toward the room, I caught sight of Kaiden and the professor.Both of them were glaring.I blinked.Kaiden’s jaw was tight, eyes narrowed like he was assessing a threat he didn’t like the look of. The professor, arms crossed, stood with the energy of a man who’d already decid
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Mr Amir
KaidenWhen Martin dropped me in front of the professor’s house. I barely waited for him to drive off before I dug out my phone. My fingers hovered over the screen for a moment before I hit Bryan’s name.He was the only one who was making an attempt to help me right now. He answered on the second ring, his voice calm and clipped, like always.“Kaiden?”“Yeah, it’s me.” I moved to the far side of the room, away from the windows, and lowered my voice. “Something weird’s going on. I need to tell you about it.”“What kind of weird?” His tone sharpened immediately.I told him everything. The prepaid boutiques. The law firm. The condo being bought out. The way no one could or would tell me who was behind it. I could practically hear him frowning on the other end of the line.“You think it’s Sage?” he asked quietly.“No,” I said quickly, too quickly. “I don’t know. I mean—I don’t want to think that. And it’s not the professor either. I know that much. They would tell me if they are trying
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Mr Anonymous
KaidenI stared at the silver-trimmed envelope resting on the counter between the professor and me like it was some kind of explosive. The award ceremony. My name was on the guest list, of course. It had to be. I was the damn honoree.“I have my own invite, thanks to my connections,” the professor said casually, leaning against the kitchen counter. He swirled his coffee slowly, watching the dark liquid spiral. “But I think Sage should go with you.”Sage, sitting cross-legged on the couch and peeling a tangerine, looked up with a sheepish smile. “Would that be okay with you?”I didn’t even think about it before I answered. “No.”Their expressions changed almost instantly, surprise flickered across the professor’s features and Sage’s smile faltered.“It’s enough that Sage’s already in the spotlight,” I said, trying to keep my voice even, my words reasonable. “With the way everyone’s been talking and taking photos, I don’t want to put him in harm’s way, more than I already have. If you
