For years, Y/N was convinced that Professor Christian Williams hated her. The strict history professor always seemed colder with her than anyone else. His sharp critiques, unreadable expressions, and impossible standards made her believe she could never do anything right in his eyes. Every interaction felt like another reminder that she was the student he simply could not stand. What Y/N never realized was that Christian’s distance had nothing to do with dislike. She was the student who caught his attention the most—the one who challenged him, fascinated him, and made him feel things he had spent years learning to control. So instead of showing it, he pushed her away, becoming stricter and more distant in an attempt to maintain professionalism. Years later, after Y/N finally graduates and escapes the “torture” of Professor Williams’ class, she begins searching through job offers and career emails. Among the countless messages waiting in her inbox, she notices one unexpected sender. Christian Williams. The man she believed hated her for years. And the email inside reveals that everything she thought she knew about him was completely wrong.
