His Tormented Desire

Moon Y/N knows how to disappear. She’s spent years perfecting the art—quiet in class, invisible at home, fading beneath the weight of guilt no one sees but her. Haunted by a past she can’t outrun and a mother who sees her as nothing more than a living burden, Y/N keeps her head down, her secrets closer, and her heart locked tight. Until him. Professor Park Jay doesn’t look twice at his students. Until the girl who never speaks answers with the kind of truth that feels lived-in. Bleeding. Real. And suddenly, he can’t look away. What begins as academic curiosity spirals into something darker—an obsession wrapped in kindness, a silence too heavy, a gaze too lingering. He offers her comfort she doesn’t trust and attention she didn’t ask for. But behind his cold composure lies a man fighting his own ghosts… and breaking every rule to be near her. In a world of half-truths and forbidden wants, how close can you get to someone before you lose yourself completely? A dark, psychological slow-burn romance about guilt, obsession, and the aching need to be seen. He watches her too closely. She doesn’t know how to walk away. And neither of them is ready.
