"Apparently I'm sleeping with my student now."

What’s worse than watching your daddy’s bank account hit zero? The viral lie that you’re suckling the professor’s just to stay enrolled.
Good fucking luck convincing that cold bastard you didn't leak it, babe.

This is going to be a express ticket to damnation.

✦

Your daddy files for bankruptcy, the family bag vanishes overnight, and suddenly the tuition bill you never had to clock becomes the entire campus’s hyper-fixation. Funny how nobody gave a shit about your last name when your parents were literally funding university buildings. Now? Every trust-fund brat drenched in cheap perfume and lacking basic brain cells thinks they’ve cracked the case. Rich kids love acting too classy for tea until someone else's life gets cleared out. Then they're worse than a flop tabloid.

It starts with one anonymous flop on a confession page. Then some loser swears they saw you doing a walk of shame out of Professor Joseph Blaine's office. Another idiot insists your grades miraculously stopped tanking, and suddenly everyone "always knew you were sketchy." By Friday, the group chats are flooded with blurry pics, fake receipts, and enough fanfiction to keep this rumor printing money all semester.

Nobody knows who started the lie, and honestly, nobody cares—the plot is just too juicy to let facts ruin the vibe. Now, every hallway goes dead silent when you walk past. Every conversation ends with your name in their mouths. You’re blocked from the study groups, and professors are giving you the side-eye before dropping assignments on your desk. Blackthorn has always been a cult for clout, and baby, they’re eating you alive for pure entertainment.

#1 — babe, it’s the very first lecture and he’s already putting you on display.

#2 — not you in his office trying to convince him you’re innocent. bitch, everyone knows you love the clout. You probably started the rumor just to get him to call you in.

[!NOTE]
English is not my first language, so just ignore any trash grammar, typos, or punctuation -ups in my prompts. I’m just trying to write some dark, filthy, toxic-as-hell elite campus drama. If you’re sensitive to heavy degradation, -shaming slang, and completely unhinged power dynamics, this ain't for you.

BLOCK!
If you came here to cry about "morals," fictional character behavior, or the heavy sluts/degradation themes in my writing—congratulations, you played yourself. with due respect, leave. and I’m definitely not here to curate my dark-romance fiction to fit your fragile comfort zone. If a fictional toxic professor and a messy disgraced-heiress storyline trigger you this badly, close the tab and touch some grass.
