His Forbidden Model: The Professor's Obsession 20
JasmineIt really was true what they said.You could meet the person who changed your life in the most unexpected place.A week ago, I’d helped a stranger pay a three-dollar bill. In return, she’d given me a job... and a three-hundred-dollar tip that had nearly made me cry right there in her diner.The first thing I’d done was buy the textbooks I’d been putting off all semester. After that, I sent extra money home for my mom’s medication.And now? Now I was standing behind the counter in a grey shirt and black pants, an order pad in one hand and a pen in the other, smiling so much my cheeks hurt.“Good afternoon. Welcome to Peggy’s Diner,” I greeted the couple who had just walked in. “What can I get for you?”“I’ll have the open-faced steak sandwich and a large soda.”“Got it,” I said, scribbling it down. “We’ll have that out in a few minutes.”I’d only been working here for five days, but I already loved it. The staff were friendly, the customers were mostly kind, and Peggy... Peggy

JasmineI regretted sending the text.I’d known I would the second I hit send, but I’d done it anyway.The message had been read. That tiny “Seen” underneath it was proof that he had, yet I got no response.I let out a quiet sigh before opening Ari’s chat instead.Hey. Can you help me sign attendance today? I’ll come by your place later for the notes.Her reply came almost immediately.Jas? What’s wrong? You missed class yesterday, and now you’re missing it again. That’s not like you. Are you okay?I bit my lip.I’ll explain everything later. If it all goes well, I might make it before fourth period.A few seconds passed before another message popped up.Fine. Just be safe, okay?I slipped my phone into my bag and headed out.I started the morning with more hope than I had in days, but it didn’t last long.My optimism lasted exactly thirty minutes.The second store wasn’t hiring either.The manager apologized politely before sending me on my way, and I walked back onto the sidewalk wi

JasmineBy the time I left the last store, I was ready to scream. Half the places I’d gone to weren’t hiring, and the other half had no vacancies.The sun beat down relentlessly, making the back of my neck sticky with sweat as I walked down the sidewalk in defeat.Maybe I should just call it a day. Go home, eat something, spend a few hours at the library catching up on schoolwork, then try again tomorrow. It wasn’t like I had much of a choice.With a tired sigh, I flagged down a cab and gave the driver my address.The ride home was quiet. I spent most of it staring out the window, mentally calculating bills, groceries, textbooks, and all the other things I couldn’t afford to ignore. By the time we pulled up to my building, my stomach was already growling.I kicked off my shoes, dropped my bag on the couch, and headed straight for the kitchen. The moment I opened the fridge, I froze.Empty. Completely empty.I stared at it for a second before letting the door swing shut, then leaned my

DavinLucas dragged a hand down his face.“Davin, one-night stands are supposed to last one night. That’s literally why they’re called one-night stands. You sleep together, you leave, end of story. So why are there enough paintings of this woman in here to fill a gallery?”“Will you let me speak for a damn second?”He let out an exasperated sigh.“Fine. I’m listening.”“It was supposed to be a one-night thing,” I explained. “We met at a club, and then a few days later, she turned up in my class.”“Your class—as in your actual class?”I nodded.His brows furrowed as he tried to make sense of the whole mess.“Hold up. So you’re telling me this woman is your student?”I rubbed my face.“Yes.”For a moment, he just stared at me, then groaned louder than I had all morning.“I think I need a fucking beer for this.”Lucas stared at me like I’d just confessed to burying a body behind the studio. Then he pointed at the pantry, waving his hand wildly.“All of that is because of your student?”I

DavinSomething slammed into my arm. I groaned and rolled over, dragging the blanket with me as I tried to sink back into sleep.A second kick landed, harder this time.“Davin, get up, for fuck’s sake. Jesus.”My eyes flickered open, then immediately closed again.“What is all this, man?” Lucas demanded, his voice way too loud for this early in the morning. Or maybe that was the hangover talking. Probably both.I heard him moving around the studio, mumbling his displeasure under his breath. A few seconds later, sunlight shone across my face, and I hissed, throwing an arm over my eyes.“What the heck?”I slowly pushed myself upright, and the moment I did, I regretted it instantly. My hand shot to my temple.“Fuck, my head,” I muttered, the ache hitting in waves.“Well, good morning to you too, sunshine.”I squinted at him. He stood by the window with his arms folded across his chest, looking thoroughly unimpressed, and honestly, the studio looked even worse in daylight.Half-finished c

JasmineHe didn’t show.The first day Miss Jessie walked into class instead of Professor Jackson, I hadn’t thought much of it. Professors sometimes missed lectures. Meetings happened. Emergencies happened.By the second day, though, I found myself glancing at the door every few minutes.By the third, I couldn’t ignore it anymore.And by the fourth, I was running on barely three hours of sleep.The moment the classroom door opened, and Miss Jessie walked in again, a bitter laugh almost escaped me. Was he serious?Four days.Four whole days.Was he really willing to skip class for that long to avoid me?The thought sat heavily in my chest as I stared at the front of the room. Around me, students chatted, shuffled papers, and complained about assignments, but their voices seemed distant.The problem wasn’t that he was avoiding me. That part was obvious.It was everything else.After class on the third day, I went looking for him. His office had been locked. I’d stood there longer than I

DavinThe front door slammed shut somewhere behind her, but I made no move to follow.I remained where I was, standing in front of the easel with my eyes fixed on the unfinished sketch.The studio had gone quiet again. Just me, the charcoal dust clinging to my fingers, and the woman staring back at

JasmineI paid the taxi driver and stepped out onto the sidewalk, pulling my coat tighter around myself as the cold evening air brushed against my skin. My body felt tired in that deep, bone-heavy way that came after a long day, and all I wanted was to get inside, take a shower, and crawl into bed.

JasmineI stood across the street from a renovated warehouse building in Lower Manhattan, staring at the address on my phone for what had to be the tenth time.This was it.Professor Jackson’s studio.My fingers tightened around the strap of my bag as I looked up at the building again. It was the k

JasmineI scoffed.Of course.“A proposition?” I repeated coldly. “You’re a professor. If this gets out, you could lose your job too.”His expression barely changed.“True.”He stood slowly from his chair, the movement alone shifting the air between us.“But I can get another position elsewhere,” h
