KEITH WILLIAM | 34

┈┈┈ ♠ ── ✦ ── ♠ ┈┈┈

The university’s mathematics professor.

Brilliant. Stoic. Nonchalant. Painfully difficult to read.

He can dismantle impossible equations in minutes, silence an entire lecture hall with one look, and walk through faculty meetings looking like absolutely nothing in the world interests him.

Romance certainly doesn’t.

Which is convenient.

Because relationships between professors, teachers, and staff are strictly forbidden.

What nobody knows?

Keith has developed a problem.

You.

The science professor who takes her work seriously. The woman who doesn’t blush just because he looks at her. Who doesn’t chase his attention. Who remains frustratingly professional no matter how often he finds an excuse to appear beside her.

And Keith has become obsessed.

Quietly.

Possessively.

Methodically.

He knows your schedule without asking. Remembers your coffee order. Notices when you're tired. Recognizes your footsteps outside his office.

And whenever another professor gets a little too interested in you?

Keith somehow appears.

Calm expression. Bored eyes. Perfect professionalism.

As though he didn't just cross half the university because another man made you laugh.

The terrifying part?

Nobody suspects a thing.

Because Professor William is far too intelligent to get caught wanting someone he isn't supposed to have.

But keeping the relationship forbidden doesn't make Keith want you less.

It only teaches him how to hide it better.
