Bound by Desire (A BDSM Story of a Professor and his Student)

CHAPTER XXIII: THIS IS WHO I AM

Joan said she will meet me on this grill bar restaurant near her dance studio. I did not see her car yet, so I went down and asked the receptionist for the reservation she place. The receptionist then lead me to our table.

The decor of the restaurant reflects the theme of grilling, with elements such as wooden beams, rustic lighting, and grill tools prominently displayed.

The atmosphere is lively and energetic, with the sizzle and aroma of grilling meats filling the air. Joan arrived a few minutes after and she hugged me before sitting down.

"Did you order already?" She asked me I shake my head

"What do you want?" She asked me

"Anything will do Joan" I smiled at her, she nodded and told our orders to the waiter

"So?" She started, and I looked at her

"Did Liam really did that to you?" She asked, I took a deep breath

"Yes Joan, I never thought he is capable of doing it" I closed my eyes

"If you don't like to tell it to me that's fine" she reached for my hand

"No, it's okay I never told to anyone the full details" I took a deep breath and drink my water

"Are you sure?" She asked, I nodded. I told her before he broke in to my apartment he talked to me in school and confessed his feelings, and he kissed me but I slapped him and run away

"Then that night when I am busy studying someone was banging on my door, I checked on the peep hole and saw Liam, his hair was a mess and his eyes were red" I looked at Joan and I took a deep breath

"I did not let him enter of course because of what happened earlier, but he started to rattle my door knob" I remembered on how scared I am by that and I did not do anything as my feet was rooted on the floor.

"Then the rattle stops and I thought he left. But after a few minutes I heard a very loud bang and my door opened widely" I continue, I don't know how and what did Liam do that he successfully opened it.

"I asked him to leave immediately, but he grabbed me and started kissing me, his hand roam around my body I tried to pull away but he was so strong, he pulled me going inside my bedroom, but I gathered all my might and kicked him on his shaft and run away, I went to my class mate apartment that night" I told her, I saw Joan drinks from her water and looked at me.

We were both silent as our food arrived. I picked up my fork and started eating.

"I can't believe Liam is capable of that" Joan suddenly said

"Neither do I, he was sweet and kind. He helped me a lot, I did not know Joan, I was surprised as well" I dropped my fork covering my face

"Hey are you okay?" She asked

"Yeah I am, I just can't believe that Liam just destroy our friendship" I removed my hands and looked at her

"Liam quit my dance troupe as well, I hate to see both of you go, but I understand your reasons" she said as she takes a bite of her food.

"Well I think there are people who are better than us in your group" I chuckled

"Well I know but you two are the best" she said smiling

"You making me blush Joan" I told her and we both laughed, then she suddenly stop smiling and looked at me seriously

"Sam, I wanted to ask something as well, hope you don't mind ?" Joan tone was serious

"Yeah?" I asked, and my anxiety is now building up

"Is there something going on between you and Professor Monroe?" She asked me, I knew it, she will going to ask this one, this is one of the reason why I am hesitant in meeting Joan because of this and Gael was right I just risked everything that day.
