"Open page 42. Today, we discuss ambition," he said, voice calm, deep.

No one guessed that behind the cold, measured tone, he ran one of the city's most powerful companies. Only the faintest smirk hinted at the secret.

Across the hall, a new teacher, Ahana Sharma, quietly organized her notes. Chalk dust lingered in the air, mingling with her nervous energy. She caught a glimpse of Shiv's gaze-brief, icy, and unreadable.

He kisses me so sweetly that my heart can't help but skip a beat. My hands run over his chest and up, until I've got my arms wrapped around his neck, the tips of my fingers at his nape. I pull him closer, desperate for more, but he pulls away, the smile melting off his fac "The next time you want this, you come to me," he tells me, his expression hardening. "Stay away from Rohit. He's not for you." I blink in confusion as he lowers me to the floor and cages me in. I look into his eyes, my racing heart beating in a different rhythm than before.

Tropes: * Second chance romance * Possessive ML * College lovers * Misunderstandings * Forced proximity ~•~ "Aryan," she whispered, her voice betraying her calm exterior. He took a step forward, his eyes full of determination. "Tara, I'm not here to beg, but I'm here to make things right. I've never stopped thinking about you." Her heart raced, but she kept her gaze fixed on the horizon, refusing to meet his eyes. "You had your chance, Aryan. You made your choice." "I know I hurt you.
