Dr. Arden Vale teaches Social Ethics at Hawthorne University - a course that dissects morality, justice, and power. Known for her razor-sharp mind and unyielding rules, she doesn't tolerate emotion, distraction, or insolence.

Then Sera Quinn walks into her classroom. Bold, relentless, and unafraid to speak her mind, Sera doesn't just challenge Arden's lectures - she challenges her. Every argument is a spark. Every look is a dare.

What begins as an intellectual battle slowly becomes something far more dangerous. Lines blur. Rules shatter. And the more Arden tries to stay in control, the more she realises she's not the one calling the shots.

In a world obsessed with right and wrong, some lessons are learned in silence... and some in the fire between two people who shouldn't want each other at all.

A slow-burn, forbidden romance where intellect collides with desire, and the tension is impossible to resist.

All the Ways I Almost Said It ( WLW)

18 parts Ongoing Mature

I broke the rules, she let me Valerie Arden is the kind of girl parents send away. Too reckless. Too loud. Too much. When she's exiled to Saint Marlowe's Boarding School, her only plan is to survive the boredom, stir up a little chaos, and graduate without anyone getting too close. Then she meets Miss Ophelia Valen - the school's youngest computer science teacher. Brilliant. Controlled. Untouchable. Everything Valerie isn't... and everything she can't stop wanting. What starts with sarcastic comments and late-night coding help becomes something slower, deeper - a quiet kind of desire they're both too smart to act on, and too desperate to stop. In a school full of rules, Valerie wants to break the only one that matters. And Ophelia might just let her. This isn't just a story about forbidden love. It's about fire meeting steel. And all the ways she almost said it - until it was too late.
