Xyrianna Isabella Alkaraz stepped onto the campus of Shiniell University like a leaf carried by the wind. Young, eager, and swept toward the unknown. With a full scholarship in hand, she makes her way to the campus of Shiniell University, stepping into a world where dreams are waiting to unfold. Yet this new beginning comes with a bittersweet price-leaving behind the warmth and comfort of home. The path ahead was unpaved, lit by the glow of possibility, yet shadowed by the ache of letting go. Across the same campus, Professor Roxiette Avegayle Fontana moved like a storm held tightly behind glass-elegant, contained, and impossible to read. Her charm was the kind that lingered like perfume in a closed room, but she was no open book. To her, people were mirrors: she reflected only what they brought to her. If you remained a stranger, she made sure the distance stayed. As Xyrianna wandered through this new world with the wide eyes of someone stepping into a dream, and Professor Fontana stood steady like a lighthouse that refused to guide, their worlds began to drift closer. Unseen threads pulled gently between them, like two stars slowly drawn into the same orbit-quietly, curiously, inevitably. ✎ᝰ. Shiniell University Series 2: MHMIMP ✎ᝰ.

At Shiniell University, a prestigious institution known for its academic excellence, Professor Vivian Madison stands as a pillar of discipline and intellect. Renowned for her strict demeanor and uncompromising academic standards, she is both respected and feared by her students. Yet behind her sharp presence lies an undeniable allure-an elegance and quiet intensity that captivates those around her. Though often labeled the "heartless professor," there exists a hidden depth to her, a mystique that draws others closer despite her intimidating facade. Meanwhile, Scarianna Eleanor Anderson shines as a celebrated figure within the campus community. Exceptionally intelligent and effortlessly charismatic, she carries herself with a confidence that commands attention the moment she enters a room. Strikingly beautiful and unapologetically bold, Scarianna leaves a lasting impression wherever she goes. She is admired, envied, and revered in equal measure. For a long time, Scarianna believed she had fully embraced her identity-secure in who she was and the life she was leading. But a chance encounter begins to stir something within her, unsettling the clarity she once held. Like a gentle breeze shifting the course of a still lake, love arrives quietly, challenging her to reconsider everything she thought she knew about herself. She is faced with a choice: to remain as she always was or to embrace the unknown and discover who she truly is beneath the surface. Inside the four walls of a Shiniell classroom, where chalk dust holds both questions and quiet feelings, the story of Vivian and Scarianna begins-like two pages slowly unfolding in the same book, discovering their truth between lessons, glances, and the soft hum of something unspoken. ✎ᝰ.
