Professor Irene Bae commands attention-not just for her brilliance in human anatomy, but for her cold beauty and haunting presence. Known for her strict methods and piercing intellect, she teaches "Advanced Human Systems," a senior-level course that dives deep into the intricacies of the body's organs-how they function, how they fail, and what secrets they hide. Lalisa Manoban, a sharp and intuitive final-year student majoring in Biomedical Science, never expected Professor Bae to take notice of her. But Irene watches-closely. Too closely. Reminder: This story contains explicit sexual content, graphic depictions of violent killings, and other mature themes that some readers may find disturbing. Reader discretion is advised.
