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

CHAPTER XXXVI: THE NEW PROFESSOR

"Take care of her" I heard Uncle Louis told Gael before leaving. Gael decided to spend the night here at my apartment, I did not protest anymore. I told them what happened when I went inside Liam's car, I am just hoping he will not come back anymore.

Gael stayed at my apartment for two more days he really wanted to make sure that Liam will never return, and I am glad he didn't, I hope he really stopped, and I wish him good luck on whatever endeavors he will going to do.

Louis on the other hand have already overcome his surprised about Gael and I, we talked again the other day telling me to be careful but he is glad that I am happy. He is still guilty about what Delilah did to me, he keeps on asking sorry about it.

Speaking of Delilah, she sent me flowers after that day, she is asking me if she can take me for lunch or dinner, but I think that is no longer necessary, I admit the flowers she sent was beautiful, so I placed it on my vase.

Days gone by so fast, I am now standing in front of my mirror checking on my uniform, I only have a year and half left for me to finish my university life. My first period is in Introduction to Psychology, it's weird that I am not with Riley, last term we call each other for our schedules so that we can always be together, funny how time changes

There is pang of nostalgia and longing that fills my chest when I think about Riley. It's a feeling that's hard to describe, but it's as if a part of me is missing, a part that can never be replaced.

For years, we were inseparable, exploring the city together, trying new restaurants, and supporting each other through thick and thin. We were more than just friends; we were confidants, partners in crime, and kindred spirits.

But life had other plans. Riley chooses Aaron over me, that bastard really did that so there's nothing I can do about it. I remember the days when we would spend hours talking about our dreams, our fears, and our hopes. We would laugh until our sides hurt, and cry together when we needed to. I just hope she is happy right now

As I enter my classroom for Media Management - which is my last subject this morning - I immediately spotted Riley happily chatting with one of the boys in our class, the boy look at me but Riley even did not look my way. Well what will I expect right?

So I choose a seat far away from her, which is in the front of the professor desk, memories of the first day of fall term clouded my mind, I can't help but to smile at the thought. As for Gael his teaching load is much lesser compared the last term as he now assumed full time his chairmanship position.

Our classroom are full of noise as they share what they did last winter break, I am happily listening to them, I must get used to this being alone now, I don't really need a lots of friends since I am used to do things on my own.

The classroom noise subsides as the new professor entered, I heard the gasps around me as we looked at him and now I regretted my decision to sit on my desk now. His black eyes went straight on me and I noticed the little smirk he gave before roaming his eyes on the room, his black hair is slicked and he is carrying an air of authoritarian

"I am Liam Sullivan your new Media Management Professor, I know most of you know me, some been my friends but when we are inside this classroom, let us treat each other with outmost respect and professionalism" then his eyes darted to me once more at me

Fuck this! Fuck this! Why do I feel this way? I never thought this day will come, does Gael know about this? Is he aware? I looked at the other way as Liam is now discussing the course syllabus.

"Okay it's our first day, so we need to get to know each other" he chuckled as the whole class laugh as well.

"Just tell me your name, where do you intern, and how my course will be a help on your future, let's start on the back" he pointed at Bryan who was startled but stand up and did what he was told. I listened as one by one as my class mates talks, sometimes Liam will ask follow up questions to them.
