Rafael Gray was the kind of man people respected but never felt comfortable around. At 39, he was sharp, emotionally distant, and always dressed like the world might fall apart if he loosened his tie. He taught Comparative Literature at a prestigious university in Chicago, and the classroom was the only place he ever seemed alive. He was methodical, intense, brilliant but cold.

Imani Carter was 20. Young, vibrant, curious, and unapologetically herself. She was one of the few Black students in his department, outspoken in class but never reckless. She had a way of challenging Rafael in a way no student had before-not with arrogance, but with genuine insight and a quiet fire in her words.

Unwritten Lessons by Tiathatgirl12

Maya Johnson is a bold, ambitious 24-year-old Black woman determined to make her mark in the elite graduate literature program at Marlowe University. Fiercely intelligent and unapologetically driven, she's used to being underestimated-but never outmatched. Dr. Charles Whitmore is a brilliant but emotionally guarded professor of modernist literature. At 47, he's twice her age, haunted by a failed marriage, and perfectly content with the predictable solitude of academia-until Maya walks into his lecture hall. Their connection begins with a spark-intellectual, intense, and charged with something deeper. Office hours become a ritual, debates turn personal, and the line between professional and private begins to blur. But in a world of strict rules, whispered gossip, and institutional power, a love like theirs could cost them everything. As desire simmers beneath the surface, both must confront their fears: Maya, about what it means to love someone who sees past her ambition to her vulnerability-and Charles, about the price of rediscovering passion in a woman half his age but twice his fire.

"I didn't even realize I had been staring until I saw her staring back at me like she was pissed. I quickly looked away and decided to focus on my food. Imani was in her own world but I can tell that she knows something is up between Sage and I. Sage feels like a mystery to me. She has to be hiding something. And I can't wait to figure it." ♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡ I was tired of seeing barely any poc mc and even if they are poc they are super ghetto soo that is why i wrote this story ♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡ This is my first story-just for fun-im accepting all feedback :) Also sorry for spelling curse words like "f-ck" This was a while ago and I thought wattpad would ban me or sum and I didn't feel like going bs k and changing it ♡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━♡ #1 in hippy-06/25/21 #3 in sirakante-06/29/21 #14 in nyc-08/19/21 started: june 23 2021 finished: feb 18 2022

The Professor's Girl by AmourMio22

Nova Quinn doesn't kneel for anyone. At eighteen, she's inherited grief, money, and a one-way ticket to Hellridge College-a place known for its elite programs, brutal professors, and whispered warnings. She arrives in black leather, messy bun, and sacred rage. She doesn't want friends. She doesn't want love. She wants silence. But the Vale Brothers don't leave things silent. Lucien, Ronan, and Kai are professors with reputations carved in fear. Sadists in suits. They speak to no one. Look at no one. Until Nova blasts music in their lecture hall and refuses to shrink. She's chaos wrapped in ink and pain. They're control wrapped in dominance and ritual. And when she's hurt, they don't ask questions. They act. What begins as protection turns into obsession. What starts as punishment becomes sacred. Nova doesn't submit easily-but when she does, it's not just to one man. It's to all three. The Professors' Girl is a dark, emotionally charged BDSM standalone about grief, power, and the kind of love that doesn't ask-it takes. Three sadist professors. One leather-clad rebel. This isn't a romance. It's a reckoning.

𝐴 𝐿𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑜𝑛 𝐼𝑛 𝐷𝑒𝑣𝑜𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 | 18+ by KashKash26

𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒌 𝑻𝒘𝒐 𝒐𝒇 𝑨 𝑳𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒐𝒏 𝑰𝒏...𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔 It's been three months since Nova walked away from Professor Steele. Three months of clean breaks and quiet mornings. Now, she's thrown herself back into school, determined to repair what their reckless affair almost cost her. She's passed her midterms. Focused on her friendships. Keeps her legs closed and her mouth shut. Even keeps her mother's proud. But what happens when fate-or maybe something crueler-pulls them back into each other's orbit, and Nova is faced with a brutal truth. This isn't about obsession anymore. This time, it's devotion.

Collision Of Hearts by lxvviaa

What happens when two people who exist in the gray spaces of control and chaos, find in each other the permission to feel without restraint? Freya has spent her life as a ghost in her own skin. Brilliant but reserved, introverted in a family that treats her quietness like a defect, she's learned to live small, to want nothing, to expect even less. She's never craved the messiness of deep connection, never understood the appeal of letting someone see the raw, unpolished truth beneath her carefully maintained surface. Enzo is a different kind of controlled intimidating, stern, a man who moves through the world with the kind of presence that makes others step aside. He lives in the gray spaces between right and wrong, and he's made peace with it. When they collide, something breaks open. The walls she's built crumble under his attention. The control he's maintained fractures in her presence. What begins as intellectual intimacy long conversations that peel back layers rather than clothes becomes something neither of them can contain. "I will feel this as deeply and express it as violently as I please." It's the philosophy that drives this entire story the idea that feeling deeply isn't weakness, that expressing it boldly isn't chaos, and that sometimes the most profound act of courage is letting someone witness you unravel. Welcome to their collision.

Happy Place by kotasonvenus

She's blunt and straightforward; except for when comes to her feeling about her best friend. The sweetest boy who could always make the most trouble, and always listens to one person; his best friend. August Beckham had many happy places the stars, the hidden field of flowers behind the school, but most importantly; his best friend. ••••••• "Delani, Imma cum." I grit through my teeth. It was at the point I had to close my eyes because if I continues to watch at her ride me I would cum in a matter of seconds. "Can you hold it for me? I'm almost there baby, I promise." She saids through shallow breaths. My legs start to tremor as I threw my head back against the comforter when I feel her tighten around me, "Fuck I-" I felt a tinge of embarrassment when my words turn into a whimper. "You're doing so good, August. So fucking good." She moans. ••••••• Book Two of the Beloved Series Can be my read as a stand alone. 6/16/22- 1/1/23
