Some love stories begin with stolen glances.
Some begin with smiles.
Some begin with destiny.
This one begins with misunderstanding, pride, and silence.
Suniti was never the kind of girl who demanded attention. She sat on the first bench not to be noticed, but to disappear into her books. Quiet, disciplined, and fiercely independent, she lived by rules-spoken and unspoken. College, for her, was a place of learning, not longing.
Sohum was respected from a distance. Cold, sharp-tongued, unapologetically strict-the kind of teacher students feared but secretly admired. He believed in control, in discipline, in never letting emotions interfere with responsibility.
They were never meant to collide.
But an accident changed everything.
What begins as hostility turns into silent wars and unsaid truths. Suniti is targeted for reasons she doesn't understand, while Sohum burns with assumptions he never questions. The classroom becomes a battlefield-not of words, but of glances, restraint, and suppressed emotions.
Then something shifts.
Silence replaces hatred.
Distance replaces anger.
Not love.
Not yet.
Obsession-quiet, controlled, and dangerous.
Sohum never confesses. He watches instead. Protects. Holds himself back. Suniti notices his quiet jealousy, his unspoken care, and the way his presence feels too close-yet untouchable.
This is not a story of reckless desire or stolen kisses.
It is a slow burn of restraint, longing, insecurity, and late confessions.
Because teacher and student cannot fall in love.
But when time changes everything, two souls just might.
This is His Quiet Obsession.
"Stop it, Dax." I wouldn't meet his eyes, I couldn't. His hot breath trailed up my neck, his soft lips ghosting over the exposed flesh. He chuckled when my back arched involuntarily, my cheeks flaring hot and pink.
"It's Officer Rivera, to you." His deep voice rasped quietly in my ear. "Besides, you don't want me to stop, Princesa."
"If you don't stop, I'll-"
"You'll what?" He interrupted, smirking against my jawline. "Call the police?"
Jane Kingsley is a Veterinary Medicine major at the University of California-Davis. If she isn't at school, she's either working or lounging around the house she shares with her best friend, Vivian Tyler. Everything in Jane's life was getting back to normal, almost boringly average. But then Officer Daxon Rivera moves in next door. Flirty, sexy, and a total asshole: Officer Rivera is everything Jane wants to stay away from. But can she?
