All Chapters of SHHH... PROFESSOR : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Juliet lay on her bed staring at the ceiling. Tears still wet her cheeks. The headlights outside flashed again, brighter this time, cutting across her small room like a warning. She sat up fast, heart pounding. The black car was still there.She moved to the window and peeked through the curtain. The car sat right across the street, engine running. Two men stood beside it, smoking and looking up at her building. One of them pointed toward her window.She dropped the curtain and stepped back quickly. Her hands shook as she grabbed her phone. No missed calls from the hospital. No new messages from Mia. Just the heavy silence of her apartment and the fear pressing down on her chest.She couldn’t stay here. Not with them waiting outside.Juliet changed into her club clothes fast, hands moving without thinking. She stuffed her regular clothes into her bag and slipped out the back door of the building. The alley was dark and quiet. She walked fast, almost running, toward Midnight Eclipse. E

Juliet’s heart pounded so hard she could hear it in her ears. Adrian’s fingers were still wrapped around her wrist, his thumb stroking slow circles over her racing pulse. She stared up at him, lips parted, and the words stuck in her throat.Adrian leaned closer. “Tell me it’s not because of me,” he said again, voice rough and low. “Say it, and I’ll let you leave right now.”Juliet swallowed hard. She couldn’t lie and not while he was touching her like this. Not while his eyes burned into hers.“I can’t,” she whispered. “It is because of you. Everything feels different when I’m near you.”Adrian’s grip tightened for a second, then softened. He let go of her wrist but didn’t step back. The space between them felt electric. Juliet’s skin still tingled where he had touched her. She wanted more and she wanted his hands everywhere.Adrian exhaled slowly. “Then stop fighting it. Whatever is happening outside this office, you don’t have to carry it alone.”Before Juliet could answer, footstep

Juliet sat on the floor in the back of an empty classroom, knees pulled to her chest. The diamond choker box lay beside her like a bomb. She had come here after her last class and after leaving her dorm because she couldn’t face staying back in her dorm. Not with the threats. Not with everything closing in. Tears ran silently down her cheeks. She wiped them away, but more kept coming. Her mother’s new bill. The black car. The VIP. Chloe’s words in the library. Mia’s hurt face. And Adrian. Always Adrian. The door creaked open and she looked up fast. Adrian stood in the doorway and he froze when he saw her. “Juliet?” He stepped inside and closed the door behind him. In three long strides he was kneeling in front of her. “What happened? Why are you crying?” Juliet shook her head. She tried to speak but her voice broke. “Everything is too much. I can’t… I can’t do this anymore.” Adrian pulled her into his arms without hesitation. He sat on the floor and held her tight against h

Juliet stared at her phone screen until the words started to blur. “I know what you did in that classroom yesterday, little dancer. Keep spreading those pretty legs for him… and I’ll make sure the whole campus watches the video.”Her stomach twisted. She dropped the phone on the bed and covered her face with her hands. Someone had seen them. Someone knew. The guilt from yesterday mixed with fresh fear until she felt sick.She barely slept that night. When morning came, she forced herself to go to class. She needed to act normal. Skipping again would only make things worse.The lecture hall was already filling up when she arrived. She took her usual seat in the third row. Mia wasn’t there yet. Juliet kept her head down and tried to breathe slowly.Adrian walked in a few minutes later. The moment he entered the room, his eyes found her. The look he gave her was dark and full of promise. It burned straight through her. Juliet’s thighs clenched under the desk as memories flooded back — hi

Juliet sat on her bed, staring at the closed door after Mia left. Her best friend’s words still hung in the air.“I’ll help you hide it… for now. But Jules—if he breaks your heart, I swear I’ll ruin him myself.”She let out a long breath. Having Mia know part of the truth felt like both relief and a new weight. At least she wasn’t completely alone anymore. But the guilt was still there. The fear was still there. And the need for Adrian was growing stronger every day.She tried to study, but her mind kept wandering. After an hour of getting nothing done, she packed her books and headed to the library. It was late, and most students had already left. She found a quiet corner on the second floor and spread her notes across the table.The words on the page blurred. All she could think about was Adrian’s hands on her. His voice. The way he made her come so easily. She pressed her thighs together and tried to focus.Footsteps sounded behind her. She turned around.Adrian stood at the end of
