PROLOGUE:
I am Nakshatra Anand and like my name I always have been a star student. Academic validation came naturally to me or that was people thought but when you had to survive in a school like st.anthonys you had to be that way. Born to a mathematician and investment banker perfection was never an option to me it was inevitable.
Staying on top was a need not a want so when the all-perfect star athlete and top student Gabriel d'souza transferred at the beginning of grade nine, being at loggerheads was inevitable because perfection is a one time thing and it had been already achieved.
This is a story of academic rivals to lovers my favourite trope in the planet and about the lives of these seemingly gifted but truly burntout kids.

I am in love with a Bad boy! Yes, that's what all called him and so did I. Even after so many years, mere thought of him brings smile on my face. 'In the end, this Bad Boy will win your heart' He had declared making me blush and he was right. Hi! I'm Sanjana, and this my story. Before you make a picture of me in your head, I am no damsel in distress. I am an introvert -extrovert , I am selective about who I am comfortable with . I do take risk but they are calculated.

The Professor's Sinister Desire. (Complete ✅)
Book 2 in the "Love with Obsession" Series. Trope: STUDENT X PROFESSOR "You're mine now, Amira," he whispered, his breath cold against her ear. "Forever and always." Amira's heart trembled, her soul screaming for escape. But Arhaan's hold was too strong, his web of deceit too intricate. She was a butterfly caught in a spider's snare, her wings beating futilely against the silken threads. ___ Arhaan Siddique ~ A charismatic and intelligent master manipulator with a dark obsession, using emotional manipulation and control to possess and dominate Amaira, hiding his sinister intentions behind a polished facade. Amaira Sheikh ~ A bright and free-spirited individual, initially confident and independent, but gradually becoming trapped and vulnerable to Arhaan's manipulation, struggling to maintain her identity and autonomy in the face of his controlling behaviour. ____ There's a question echoing through the halls of his mansion, a haunting whisper: what secrets lay hidden behind Arhaan's charming smile, and how far would he go to satiate his all-consuming desire for Amira's love? Only time would tell, but one thing was certain - Amira's fate was inextricably entwined with the sinister forces that drove Arhaan's heart.Complete
