Elena June, felt cornered at the moment, her hands trembling in fear as her laptop screen displayed something that no one should know about.

It wasn't that she was ashamed, being a ghost writer in charge of creating adult stories. But she was forced to become an adult story writer like that to earn money and survive.

And this time, she was caught off guard by the man now standing in front of her. The man is her own mentor at her college, the man named "Adrian Caldwell".

The most respected and feared professor on campus. A man known for never showing emotion, as if the world was nothing more than a game of chess to him.

His sharp gray eyes stared at the laptop screen with an unpredictable expression. The man's lips, which usually showed no expression, now began to grin slightly. Elena who saw that, thought that her mentor's gaze was now like a predator who found its prey in an easy position.

"Interesting" Adrian murmured, his voice low and deep, almost like a poisonous whisper creeping into Elena's bones.

Elena's heart pounded inside her chest.

"P-Please don't tell anyone," her voice sounded small, almost like a kitten that immediately wanted to cry "I... I need this job-"

Adrian cut in immediately, stopping Elena from finishing her sentence.

"You know, Elena" Adrian said, as he walked slowly closer. His footsteps were almost silent, like a hunter used to chasing his prey.

"I could have reported this to the college. Or..." He brought his face closer to Elena's, who was still sitting in her chair. "We could make a deal..."

Elena swallowed, afraid of what might happen next.

"We are deal?"

Adrian smiled. This time it was definitely not a friendly smile it was the expression of someone who was satisfied, when a man who knew that he had complete control over someone's life.

"Yes" he whispered, his long fingers tapping gently on the laptop screen, right on the title of the novel he had just read. As she continued her sentence. "I will keep this a secret. But you must obey me, Elena."

Elena's eyes widened in fear, more frightened than ever.

"What do you want...?" her voice trembled.

Adrian stared at her, as if she were a fun puzzle to solve.

"I want you..." he said, without hesitation.

"Your body, your obedience, everything. From now on, you are mine."

Elena felt her whole world come crashing down at that moment...
