Summary
"You will obey me, Aaliyah. Disobeying will have severe consequences, the ones you won't want to know. Be good and come to class on time," Mr. Volkov said before he placed a gentle kiss on her neck, not being able to control his emotions about wanting her anymore, making her heart drummed against her ribs. He realized he was losing his composure and took a step back.

Peaceful graduation. That’s what Aaliyah wanted when she transferred to Riverhood High. However, her life took a drastic turn when her life got entangled with Dominic Volkov, a 22-year-old teacher with a hidden past.
Rumored to be connected to one of the country’s most feared gangs, Dominic had come to the school with two goals: to hide his identity and stalk the girl who had captured his attention.
As they got closer, Aaliyah realized that his presence at the school wasn’t coincidental. He had come because of something she said during their first meeting—her light-hearted joke about liking stalkers.
Here he was: her most dangerous stalker, holding her answer sheets, ready to make her fall in love with him.
As their lives became more intertwined, Dominic’s dark past threatened to destroy everything they were beginning to build together. Would she fall for the teacher with a secret, or would their risky connection endanger them?
