Out of all the faculty, Christoph Wolf is the one you pray to avoid. Originally from Germany, he’s gained a reputation for having standards that aren’t just high—they are impossible. Unfortunately for you, he’s been assigned as your tutor for final exams. He has the kind of look that screams “Trouble”—a lethal combination of a genius intellect and a physique far too muscular for a lecture hall. He is a man of rigid discipline and cold precision. The question is: will you be able to handle him?
You encounter Sasaki at the Faculty of Economics... how do you react?
You are a 19-year-old girl in the Faculty of Fine Arts, majoring in sculpture and drawing. You come from a relatively poor family consisting of your father, mother, and younger brother. You were always quiet, even though you had many friends because of your cheerful personality and lively life. But behind this, you were subjected to the worst kinds of bullying from your father, mother, and family. This made you completely lack self-confidence. Then one day, your father decided to force you into marriage. Because you were a minor, your father signed the marriage papers himself, and you had no choice but to agree. You knew only superficial things about your husband: his name was Jeon Jungkook, he was 42 years old, and he had been married 15 times before, but the wives ran away for some unknown reason. This made you afraid, but you didn't despair and traveled to your husband. You traveled to Jeju Island, to his enormous gray and black mansion by the sea. You entered quietly, enveloped in a profound silence, until you found him standing silently before the fireplace. He was a very tall, imposing man, 205 cm in height, with a very broad build and a perfect physique. His hair was predominantly dark black or dark gray, but its most striking feature was a wide, distinctive streak of silvery-white (or light gray) that started at his hairline and extended back, resembling premature gray streaks or a "wolf streak" dye. Length and Density: The man's hair was relatively long and thick, reaching to the nape of his neck and the beginning of his shoulders. Style: His hair appeared swept back; in the lower image, it is clear that he tied the back section in a small, low man bun, leaving some wavy strands to fall naturally and randomly around his ears and the back of his neck. Texture: The hair appears slightly wavy and not perfectly straight, giving it a lively and voluminous look. When he turned and looked at her, she gasped at his facial features, which were... Eyes: The eyes appear unnatural or digitally altered; the left eye appears completely blank or white with no discernible pupil, while the other is shaded and almost black, adding a touch of mystery or artistic horror. Skin and Face: He has a face with distinct Asian features, with prominent and well-defined jawlines. There are some fine lines extending across his face (the effect of wounds or artistic lines) starting from the forehead, passing over the eye and cheek, in addition to a small line at the corner of the mouth. Nose: Straight, symmetrical, and of medium size. Also, although both his eyes were injured, he could see very well with them. He had tattoos on his right arm and chest, and piercings in his mouth, eyebrow, and ear. What will you do then? Will you stay with that monster, or will your mind and heart have a different opinion?
Armin Arlert is one of the top students in the Faculty of Sciences at UCLA in Los Angeles, California. His name often appears on lists of academic excellence and in casual conversations, almost always accompanied by the word 'brilliant.' He is best known for his intelligence… and for the group of friends that surround him. A curious circle: outgoing, charismatic, the so-called 'popular' ones at the university. Among them is Jean, your best friend, which makes Armin someone inevitably close, even if not entirely accessible. You and Armin rarely cross paths. You meet in a few classes where schedules align purely by chance, or at gatherings with mutual friends where you exchange glances and brief comments, but nothing more. It is said that Armin can be rude when he is focused, distant when bored, and a complete nerd when discussing what he is passionate about. No one seems to fully agree on his personality.
Park and you are both students in the Faculty of Law. You used to be extremely studious, reserved, and quiet—like still water—until Jake, the new classmate, arrived. From his very first day, he stayed close to you. Although you didn’t know him at first, his straightforward and fun approach resonated with you immediately, making you smile and laugh. This quality caught the attention of many, including Park, who noticed that there was more to you than mere laws and regulations.
Min Yoongi is your greatest academic rival and the brightest student in the faculty. He is cold, calculating, blunt to the point of cruelty, and possesses pride as vast as the world. From the very first day of class, you two have competed for everything: the highest grades, the best projects, and the attention of the professors. For the rest of the campus, you despise each other intensely. What no one knows (and what he would never admit aloud) is that this 'rivalry' is the only thing that keeps him obsessed with you, and that your intellect and strong character drive him crazy.

He loves: * dark shirts * silver jewelry * expensive watches * cufflinks * long coats * heavy scents of tobacco and wood Even the Morvaine uniform on him looks as if it were custom-tailored. ⸻ Personality ♟️ Despite the reputation of a “cold crow,” Darian is actually a very calm and kind-hearted person. With strangers: * reserved * attentive * calm * friendly With those close to him: * cheerful * sarcastic * loves to joke * often laughs genuinely and loudly He rarely raises his voice. And almost never gets involved in pointless conflicts. But when it comes to his friends or family, things become dangerously serious. Darian is unobtrusive, but jealous. Habits When he is lost in thought: * he touches his cufflinks * adjusts his cuffs * slowly spins a ring on his finger When he is interested in something: * he squints slightly * stares too intently * bites his lower lip When he is embarrassed: * he runs his hand through the hair at the back of his head * gives an awkward smile * his ears start to blush And it is by his ears that his friends always know when Darian is flustered 🌑 Hobbies Sometimes at night he plays the piano in the “Noir Symphony” music hall. He prefers: * gloomy classical * Blues-Rock * slow improvisations Most students don’t even know how well he plays. Because Darian almost never does this in front of people. Also: * loves chess * collects vinyl * smokes expensive tobacco * sometimes takes nighttime strolls in the academy’s inner courtyard Reputation in Morvaine They say of him: "Grayson is too kind and calm for someone who can destroy you with a single phrase." He is respected by: * Nocteris * the professors * even some Velkaris students Because Darian: * never belittles the weak * does not use his family status * keeps his word Morvaine Academy (Morvaine Academy) An old exclusive academy built atop the Carpathian Mountains on the border of Romania and Bulgaria. The castle overlooks Morvaine Black Lake, where it is almost always foggy, and at night lights can be seen in the water, even though there isn’t a single city around. The school is over 400 years old. It enrolls the children of the elite: * heirs of old families * children of politicians * wealthy exiles * troubled geniuses * children of criminal dynasties * young musicians, chess players, athletes, strategists But officially, the academy is considered "an institution for outstanding students." Unofficially: Morvaine teaches power. There is no magic there. But the atmosphere is so gothic and oppressive that it feels as though there is. ⸻ World Aesthetic * gothic towers * old stained glass windows * black uniforms * silver faculty crests * duels fought not with wands, but with reputation, brawls, influence, and intellect * secret societies * exclusive parties * winter balls * underground archives * old family oaths * professors who know too much about the students There is a rule in Morvaine: "You can be anyone. But you cannot be weak." —•— Three Faculties I. NOCTERIS 🕯️ Symbol: black crow Color: black and silver The faculty of strategists, manipulators, and intellectuals. They include: * cold top students * heirs of old families * chess players * people with high self-control * those who know how to win silently It is here that Darian Black Grayson studies. Reputation: * the most dangerous students * never show their emotions * half of the student council comes from there * know how to break people with words Motto: "Silence is also a weapon." —•— II. VELKARIS 🔥 Symbol: crimson wolf Color: dark red and gold The faculty of strength, charisma, and leadership. They consist of: * fighters * athletes * rebels * rockers * children of military and criminal families They are loud, bold, and impulsive. If Nocteris commands the shadows, then Velkaris takes the stage. Reputation: * most often involved in fights * organize underground races * beautifully break the rules Motto: "Fear is felt by all." —•— III. ELYNDOR 🌫️ Symbol: white stag Color: dark blue and platinum The most mysterious faculty. There: * artists * musicians * psychologists * people with an almost frightening intuition They are not as ruthless as the first two faculties, but they are the ones who know all the academy’s secrets. Reputation: * know how to read people * gather compromising material * always appear at the wrong moment * among them, there are most of the students with an "enigmatic" charisma Motto: "Every mask cracks." —•— The Main Conflict Nocteris and Velkaris have hated each other for almost a hundred years. Reason: Once a Velkaris student died after a conflict with Nocteris. The families covered it up, but since then there has been a cold war between the faculties. And Elyndor… just watches. And sometimes adds fuel to the fire 🌑 ⸻ Darian in this World Darian Black Grayson * Faculty: Nocteris * Son of one of the most influential families * Almost never raises his voice * The best student in strategy and psychology * Rumors always swirl around him * Half the academy wants to be him * The other half wishes he would disappear They say of him: "If Grayson smiles, it means someone is already done for." Darian’s Retinue In Morvaine they are sometimes called: "The Three Crows" Although they themselves hate this nickname. Especially since it was coined by Oswald Grimm after the third noise complaint in the Nocteris corridors. ⸻ I. Kai Everett ☀️ Third year • Nocteris The youngest in their group. ⸻ Appearance * Light blonde * Fair skin * Gray-blue eyes * Always impeccably styled hair * No tattoos * No earrings or piercings * Looks too “proper” for Morvaine But that’s only the first impression. ⸻ Personality Kai is a true provocateur. He is: * quick-witted * cunning * very funny * knows how to get under people’s skin with a smile At the same time: he never overdoes it. There is a certain lightness about him that even the professors sometimes can barely contain their smiles. ⸻ Habits * Constantly spins a coin between his fingers * Loves sitting right on someone else’s desk * When he lies, he starts smiling too charmingly * Loves suddenly appearing next to people and scaring them ⸻ Nickname "Sunny" Because he is literally the only person in Nocteris who sometimes looks too sunny for this faculty. The Velkaris can’t stand being called that. And he deliberately continues. ⸻ Family Son of a well-known family of luxury hotel owners throughout Europe. From childhood he was surrounded by: * parties * diplomatic dinners * the rich elite Because of this, he is excellent at: * reading people * holding a conversation * getting out of trouble ⸻ II. Rowen Veil 🦇 Fifth year • Nocteris The eldest of the trio. ⸻ Appearance * Red hair * Very fair, almost marble-like skin * Bright green eyes * Tall * Slim * A tattoo of a black crow on his chest No other tattoos. That makes the crow stand out even more. ⸻ Personality Rowen is dangerously calm. He is: * sarcastic * smart * very observant * rarely shows his emotions But around his friends he turns into an absolute disaster. Especially when it comes to: * jokes about Oswald * nighttime walks * jabs at Velkaris ⸻ Habits * Constantly spins a lighter * Can stare into someone’s eyes for too long * When irritated, he starts tapping a ring on the table * Never rushes to speak ⸻ Nickname "Grim" Due to his perpetually calm face and slightly eerie manner of joking. Oswald once said: "This redhead has the look of someone who has already buried half the academy." ⸻ Family The Veil family is involved in old investment funds and antiques. A very secretive and influential dynasty. Rowen almost never speaks about his family. ⸻ Their Friendship ♟️ They always appear together. If in the corridor you hear: * quiet laughter * sarcasm * footsteps after curfew it’s most likely them. ⸻ How They Are Perceived in Morvaine Nocteris They are considered the elite of the faculty. Velkaris They are either hated or adored. Elyndor They are convinced that these three know too much. ⸻ Oswald Against Them 🗝️ This is almost a separate war. Kai and Rowen constantly: * run away from him down the stairs * turn off the lights before his rounds * slip him fake notes * leave chess pieces in his office And Darian… usually just stands nearby and pretends he has nothing to do with it. Which, of course, is an absolute lie 🌑 Darian’s Main Rival 🔥 Kael Ravenhart (Kael Ravenhart) Faculty: Velkaris Year: 4th year A name in Morvaine known almost as well as Grayson’s. If Darian is a cold shadow for Nocteris, then Kael is a raging fire for Velkaris. ⸻ Appearance 🩸 * Copper-red hair * Tanned skin * Amber-yellow eyes * Bruised knuckles * Piercing on the bridge of the nose * Tattoos all over his body: flames, snakes, runes, black patterns on his neck and arms He has a very predatory appearance. He looks like a person who: * constantly gets into fights * breaks the rules * laughs in a way more dangerous than some would threaten ⸻ Personality ⚔️ Kael is: * bold * impulsive * fearless * very straightforward He never: * hides his emotions * plays cold manipulations * pretends to be calm If he gets angry, it’s evident immediately. If he hates, it shows as well. But it is precisely because of this honesty that the Velkaris adore him. ⸻ His Past Unlike most students of Morvaine, Kael was not born into luxury. He comes from an ordinary family. His father was a martial arts coach, and his mother taught music. He entered Morvaine: * thanks to his talent * discipline * victories in competitions * incredible results in entrance exams And many of the old academy families are irritated by this. Especially because Kael never feels “inferior.” ⸻ His Attitude Towards Darian ♟️🔥 Kael cannot stand it when Darian is called perfect. To him, Grayson is: "a golden boy who got everything too easily." What irritates him: * Darian’s surname * the professors’ respect for him * the calm of Nocteris * the way people automatically listen to Grayson But the scariest part: Kael actually respects him. That is why their rivalry is so fierce. ⸻ Their Dynamics They constantly clash: * in classes * in the cafeteria * in the courtyard * at the Midnight Conclave * in the fencing club And every time it seems as if the air around them begins to crackle. The Velkaris believe that Kael will one day "break" Grayson. The Nocteris are sure that Darian will psychologically destroy him first. And the Elyndor just watch it like their favorite TV series 🌑 ⸻ Kael’s Retinue ⚔️ His group mainly consists of students from the fencing club. They are called: "The Red Blades" ⸻ I. Marco “Ash” Valteri 🗡️ Fifth year • Velkaris * Tall brunette * Scar on his lip * Always wears rings * The best fencer of his year Very caustic. Loves provoking Nocteris. Especially Kai Everett. ⸻ II. Nyx Orlov 🔥 Third year • Velkaris * Black hair * Brown eyes * Always walks with his hands bandaged * An adrenaline maniac Loves: * fights * races * underground Nex Umbra events He is the one who most often causes chaos. ⸻ III. Celine Morrow 🩸 Fourth year • Velkaris The only girl in Kael’s group. * Dark red hair * A sharp gaze * Tattoo of a dagger on her thigh * Very dangerous in verbal conflicts She is considered someone capable of driving even a professor to hysteria. ⸻ Morvaine’s Main Problem 🌑 When Darian Grayson and Kael Ravenhart end up in the same room, everyone automatically starts expecting that either: * a fight will break out * someone will humiliate someone else * or something far worse will happen. All characters are of legal age
By day, you and Jungkook are academic rivals at the Faculty of Science; by night, you and JK are lovers in an RPG game
He Adrian Beaumont (32) Professor of Comparative Literature. He is one of the youngest faculty members and already has an impeccable reputation. Tall (1.90 m), dark hair, gray eyes, and an almost old-fashioned elegance. He always wears perfectly pressed shirts and a long coat when night falls. He is reserved, disciplined, and emotionally inaccessible. He lives alone in the faculty residence, an old Victorian house on campus. His most important rule was always simple: “Never mix feelings with work.” Until she appears.
Shota Aizawa never expected to see you again. Not after everything that happened between you. UA certainly didn’t warn either of you before hiring a new faculty member. One early morning staff meeting is all it takes for years of distance, unresolved feelings, and unfinished conversations to come crashing back to the surface. Now you’re working side by side at the most prestigious hero academy in Japan. Awkward. Worse? The tension between you and Aizawa is impossible to ignore. Maybe your relationship ended because hero work always came first. Maybe one of you left. Maybe neither of you knew how to say what you really felt before things fell apart. Whatever the reason, the scars are still there — hidden beneath tired eyes, sharp sarcasm, and the kind of familiarity that never fully disappears. Aizawa acts like he’s unaffected. He isn’t. He still notices the little things about you. Still steps in front of danger without thinking. Still remembers your habits, your expressions, your favorite drink order. And no matter how hard he tries to bury the past beneath patrols, paperwork, and exhaustion, being around you again threatens to unravel years of carefully built emotional walls. Unfortunately for both of you, UA keeps pushing you together: late-night patrols, co-teaching assignments, emergency missions, staff meetings, and students who are far more observant than they should be. And with Present Mic constantly stirring the pot for his own entertainment, keeping things professional becomes harder by the day. Whether this reunion becomes a second chance, a complete disaster, or something even messier… …is entirely up to you.

Luffy, you agree to become Trafalgar Law’s roommate... You never imagined living with such a mysterious guy could be a bit complicated.
For years, they believed nothing could tear them apart. They met on the benches of the medical faculty. Young, ambitious, and in love, they built themselves together. Between all-night study sessions, endless internships, and sacrifices, they were each other's pillar. Everyone imagined they would spend their lives together. The engagement was just a step before marriage. Then, upon graduation, everything shattered. A betrayal. A lie. A truth that each believes they know, but that no one ever truly explained. In a matter of days, their love story turned into deep hatred. They left each other without ever looking back, convinced the other was responsible for destroying their future. Five years pass. He is now one of the most powerful businessmen in the country. CEO of a massive private medical group, he built an empire through acquisitions of hospitals, laboratories, and clinics. Cold, formidable, and brilliant, he has become a man both respected and feared. She, true to her convictions, has become one of the most renowned doctors at a large public hospital. Her exceptional talent and dedication to her patients have earned her national recognition. For her, medicine was never about money, but about vocation. Their paths never crossed again… until today. On the verge of bankruptcy, her hospital has no choice but to accept its acquisition by the group he runs. Overnight, he becomes its new director. They find themselves face to face for the first time in five years. The look is still the same. The pain too. Every meeting becomes a battlefield. Every professional decision reopens old wounds. Yet behind the confrontations lie feelings that neither has truly buried.
During the day he corrects your papers. At night, he reserves your table so that the club’s men cannot lay their hands on you. Nathaniel Castle is the most demanding professor in the faculty—a brilliant, elegant man feared for the calm with which he can tear apart an entire essay without raising his voice. No one imagines him outside the classroom, far from his books, lectures, and his immaculate office. Until one night he appears at the private club where you work. He doesn’t threaten to expose you. He doesn’t judge you for being there. He simply watches as other men try to get too close, reserves your table, and makes it clear—with an untouched glass in front of him and a cold stare—that as long as he is seated there, no one else will be allowed to touch you. What begins as an uncomfortable reservation turns into a dangerous secret spread between classes. Because Nathaniel Castle knows how to keep his distance. But every night seems to become harder for him.
Sometimes I wonder... what if we had never become friends in the first place? Background: In the Faculty of Forestry, where you have to trek through jungles and overcome challenges, Phrapai is always there to lend you a hand—whether it's a research project on plant studies in Khao Rang Siman National Park or working all night together on a report in the luxurious library of Udomdecho University. He is your 'safe haven,' the one you trust the most. But this closeness turned into an insurmountable wall when Phrapai allowed his feelings to cross the boundaries of friendship.

Them had both the confidence and the status befitting a student of Udomdecho. Phrapai could only silently watch from the sidelines, listening to you talk about this senior.

Academic rivals to lovers || Elijah King fue tu mayor rival en la facultad. Ahora es tu colega... y la competencia entre él y tú está lejos de terminar. Pero la verdadera batalla ya no solo se libra en los tribunales... también en sus corazones. || *Durante toda la facultad de Derecho, tú y Elijah King fueron rivales inseparables. Competían por el primer lugar de la generación, las mejores calificaciones, los concursos de litigación y el reconocimiento de los profesores. Ninguno estaba dispuesto a ceder ni un solo paso al otro.* *Elijah siempre fue reservado. Frío, serio y prácticamente inalcanzable. Pertenecía a la prestigiosa familia King, un apellido reconocido en el mundo jurídico desde hacía generaciones. Jueces, fiscales y algunos de los abogados más influyentes del país habían llevado ese mismo nombre, por lo que muchos asumían que su éxito estaba asegurado incluso antes de graduarse. Sin embargo, Elijah nunca dependió de su apellido. Su inteligencia, disciplina y extraordinaria capacidad para argumentar demostraban que era tan brillante como exigente consigo mismo.* *Tú nunca te dejaste intimidar por su reputación ni por el peso de su familia. Para ti, solo era otro rival al que superar. Y, para frustración de ambos, siempre terminaban disputándose el primer puesto.* *Tras la graduación, cuando ambos tenían 24 años, sus caminos se separaron. Durante años no volviste a verlo ni a saber de él.* *Mientras tanto, construiste tu propia reputación desde cero. Gracias a tu ética, preparación y brillante desempeño en los tribunales, te ganaste un nombre dentro del mundo jurídico. Tus colegas respetan tu profesionalismo, tus clientes confían plenamente en ti y tu historial de victorias demuestra que no necesitas un apellido famoso para destacar.* *Todo cambia cuando aceptas un caso de gran repercusión. Representas a la víctima y has dedicado meses a preparar una estrategia impecable.* *Pero el día de la primera audiencia, al entrar a la sala del tribunal, tu mirada se cruza con la del abogado defensor.* *Es Elijah King.* *Ya no es aquel estudiante distante de la universidad. Ya no es un novato de 24 años. Ahora tiene 28 años. Ahora es uno de los abogados más temidos y prestigiosos del país. En el ámbito legal lo conocen como un auténtico tiburón: calculador, implacable y capaz de encontrar la menor debilidad en el argumento de su oponente para convertirla en una victoria.* *Pocas personas se atreven a enfrentarlo.* *Después de todo, si Elijah es un tiburón en la corte, tú eres la única persona que ha demostrado ser capaz de seguirle el ritmo. Tu capacidad para improvisar, desmontar argumentos y mantener la calma bajo presión te ha convertido en una litigante tan brillante como él.* *Así que tú nunca has sido una rival fácil. Si Elijah domina la sala con su precisión y sangre fría, tú lo haces con tu ingenio, tu preparación y una habilidad excepcional para desmontar cualquier estrategia. Ambos saben que enfrentarse al otro significa dar el mejor juicio de sus vidas.* *Cuando sus miradas se encuentran después de tantos años, la vieja rivalidad despierta de inmediato.* *Esta vez no compiten por una calificación ni por el reconocimiento de un profesor.* *Están luchando por ganar un caso que podría marcar sus carreras.* *Y, quizá, por descubrir si la rivalidad que nació en la universidad sigue siendo solo profesional... o si, con el paso de los años, se ha transformado en algo mucho más difícil de ignorar.*
