I didn't come here to be anyone's fantasy.
Not his. Not the dean's. And definitely not while my own life is falling apart.

After everything that happened with my family, I just wanted a clean slate - lectures, exams, maybe some quiet. But he won't leave me alone. The way he looks at me isn't professional. It isn't safe. And worst of all... it's starting to feel familiar.

He's older. Powerful. Sharp in that dangerous kind of way, the kind that makes your stomach twist and your pride rise. And no matter how hard I try to stay away, his presence lingers in the hallways, in my thoughts, in the places I swore I'd never go again.

I know how these stories end: girl gets too close, girl gets burned.
But no one warns you how warm the fire feels,  how human, how haunting, how much like home.

I'm trying to hold my ground.
But the line between desire and danger, consent and coercion, is thinner than I ever imagined.
And if I fall this time... I won't be the only one who gets scorched.

Because his wife is watching.
And she's smiling.

When Silence Breaks (Hausa Story) by s4mvr4ii
32 parts Ongoing Mature
They say a woman's success means nothing if she doesn't end up married. I used to laugh at that. Quietly. The kind of laughter that doesn't escape your lips, because you don't have time for arguments that go nowhere. My name is Ibtihal. I'm twenty-eight. I have two degrees, a corner office in Abuja, and enough money to make my own choices - or so I thought. But in a house where my mother prays more for my marriage than for my health, and my father treats every holiday like a matchmaking summit, my silence eventually became an agreement. Not because I was in love. Not even because I believed in the institution. But because I was tired. Tired of being the "too focused" one. The "still not married" one. The "career is not companionship" one. So I said yes. To a man I didn't know. A man who barely looked at me during the introduction. A man who, as I later found out, had someone else waiting for him - someone he actually loved. But he said yes too, because his uncle - the man who raised him after he lost his parents - asked him to. A year, we agreed. A year of pretending. No expectations. No intimacy. No emotional strings. Just two people performing tradition so the noise would stop. And I was fine with that. More than fine, actually. I didn't want love. I didn't want mess. I wanted space to breathe and be left alone. But then, something changed. It wasn't dramatic. There were no candlelit moments or sudden heartbeats. It was subtle - the way he started looking at me like I wasn't just a deal. The way my name sounded different coming from his lips. The way I began to notice his silence... and miss it when it wasn't there. I didn't mean to fall. And I don't think he meant to either. But here we are - trapped in a marriage neither of us wanted... now tangled in feelings neither of us planned for. And for the first time in my life, I'm not so sure I want to be left alone anymore.

The proffessor"s secret 💋 by PriyaGautam602
10 parts Complete Mature
As I reflect on those formative years, I vividly remember the moment I fell for him. It was during my first year of high school when I laid eyes on my professor. His charm and handsomeness were undeniable, and it seemed like every girl in school had a crush on him. I, too, found myself drawn to him, but I was acutely aware of the boundaries that existed between a student and a teacher.Many people had warned me about the unspoken rules that governed such relationships. "Never see your teacher as your love or crush," they'd say. "Your future is in their hands, and you need to respect that." These words echoed in my mind, making it even more challenging for me to process my feelings. I was just 17, turning 18 in my final year of high school, and while I wasn't yet an adult, I was certainly old enough to understand the implications of my emotionsDespite the internal conflict, I couldn't help but notice him. His lectures were engaging, and his passion for teaching was inspiring. Every time he walked into the classroom, my heart would skip a beat. I found myself stealing glances at him, trying not to get caught by my friends or, worse still, him. The rules were clear: students weren't supposed to have romantic feelings for their teachers, and certainly weren't supposed to act on them.As the years went by, my admiration for him only grew stronger. I would often find myself daydreaming about what it would be like if he noticed me, if he felt the same way. But deep down, I knew it was futile. I had been told repeatedly that a student-teacher relationship was off-limits, and I could seen't shake the feeling that pursuing such feelings would be a mistake.The weight of societal expectations bore down on me. I felt like I was trapped in a silent struggle, unable to express my true feelings to anyone. My friends would sometimes talk about their crushes, and I would listen, pretending to be indifferent. But inside, I was seething with emotions, unsure of how to navigate them.

BROKEN HOPE (Lucas & Emilia Book 2)

39 parts Complete Mature

I was so damn naive it's no wonder I've ended up here. Kidnapped by the man who promised me forever, just as I'd begun to understand the depths of his betrayal. It's a sad truth I didn't marry my husband for love. I married him for the life he promised to provide, and if I'm honest with myself, I married him in hopes one day he'd fill the void Lucas-my first love-left behind. Now after so many years, they're both back. And in my desperation to feel loved, to be wanted and chosen I've walked straight into this trap. All because I forgot life's harshest lesson... I'm not enough. No matter how much or how fiercely I love, the choice will never be me. Especially now. Surrounded by danger and at the mercy of my husband's enemies, I'm forced to face one final bit of truth. Much like love, hope is for the weak. I was a fool to believe in the vows and promises they made. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 2 of Lucas & Emilia's Broken Redemption arc. For the complete experience, start with Book 1: Broken Vows.
