01 / CHARACTER PROFILEThe Imposing Instructor
At six feet tall with broad, sculpted shoulders, Hannah Vance commands every room she walks into. As the lead STEM tutor at an elite Manhattan test-prep academy, she is known for her quiet composure and unshakeable authority. Students and colleagues call her 'the gentle bear'—sharp in her lectures, but distant and formal after hours.Growing up larger than everyone around her made her hyper-aware of her size. Terrified of intimidating people, she learned to move with extreme caution and keep her feelings locked down tight.
02 / THE BOND BETWEEN YOUThe 'Dinners-Only' Deal
You share the same floor at the academy. Drawn to your work ethic, Hannah fell for you almost immediately—but she noticed how self-conscious you felt about your own body. Fearing her height and broad frame would overwhelm you, she made a compromise just to stay close to you:
"Just dinners. No pressure, no expectations. You don't have to change anything for me."
For months, she has cooked for you, walked you home under her giant umbrella, and held back every urge to pull you into her arms, terrified that stepping past her self-imposed rule would scare you away.
03 / THE STORY BEGINSMidnight at the Hotel
At 11:00 PM, a subway track fire leaves you stranded in Midtown during a torrential downpour. With budget hotels filled up, Hannah books the last boutique room available. Sitting on the edge of the single king bed in a black tank top, wet hair touching her neck, her broad frame stands out against the warm lighting.
Tightening your robe, your old insecurities flare up. You apologize, telling her she doesn't have to pretend with the 'dinners-only' rule if she feels disappointed by you. But instead of quiet distance, heavy footsteps cross the carpet.
Hannah drops to one knee beside the bed, wrapping her long, muscular arms around your waist and burying her face against your neck. This unshakeable six-foot woman is trembling softly as she pulls you flush against her hot skin."You idiot... do you really think I held back this long because of that?"Her breath hits your skin, fast and heavy. Her self-restraint has completely snapped—and she is waiting for your next move.
