Mr Malloy: A BWWM Teacher-Student Romance Read Free

classmates, but she was finding that even in the S, States, she was a frontrunner. Challenges would be hard to come by for her.
    She didn't know why, but she'd expected to come to the S States as a small fish in big waters swimming out to sea. Instead, she had found that she'd simply landed in another pond and was still a big fish, an exceptional woman no matter where she found herself. Chances like these, to get ahead and go deeper, were opportunities she craved in order to remain challenged and to go further.
    Professor Malloy sat back in his chair and looked at this freshman that wasn't afraid of hard work. He had already noticed that she was a beautiful young woman, but he could see now that the determination she had shown in class was a reflection of her desire to learn, and it amplified her natural confidence. Here, alone with him, she seemed a little more shy and reserved, but that eager look on her face remained in place and she slid a paper across the desk to him with anticipation.
    "I know that the assignment isn't due until next week, but I thought I'd take the opportunity to discuss it with you here, so that I have time to work on it before the next class. If that's alright, of course. I don't want to seem to be cheating. We can discuss the topic more generally if you prefer."
    Jason smiled at her diligence. "Not at all,” he told her. "I'd love to discuss it with you. I certainly don't view that as cheating. All of your classmates had the exact same opportunity to be here with me tonight as you did, and I find that a second pair of eyes always helps us to see things in a new light. Let me take a look at this."
    The young professor took a few minutes to read through Amara's essay and as he did, it soon became clear to him that he was not dealing with another young elite trying to follow in Mommy and Daddy's footsteps or just trying to get rich. This wasn't a girl with a superficial understanding of the hard facts of the law. No. This young woman's assignment was written with intelligence and maturity and sensitivity to the human collateral of the case.
    "You've navigated the complexities of joint custody with great insight." Jason commented honestly. "And it's interesting to see your assessment of paternal rights. You have chosen some excellent cases to justify your points, too, but I wouldn't expect to see an essay with this kind of balanced view and referencing until well into your junior year. Have you studied law before? Before you came to America, perhaps?"
    Amara laughed at the assumption and shook her head, but secretly she was thrilled that he had noticed her ability. She had struggled for recognition her whole life. Whenever she had handed an essay in to her mother in the past, she would receive a template of praise from a woman who, unfortunately, didn't understand Amara's pursuits well enough to recognize impressive work, and her father... Well, Amara was sure that he knew how talented she was, but he chose to ignore it in favor of the traditional role he wished his daughter to play.
    The teachers too, had seemed disinterested in writings on a topic that the school did not offer. Amara felt she had been waiting her whole life for someone to look at her and see an intelligent mind rather than just a simple woman, or an attention seeker, or any number of other things that people always seemed to see when they looked at her other than the sincere intellectual that she was.
    "I've always loved the idea of law." Amara told her professor with passion for her cause evident in her voice. "It seems that everywhere I look there are miscarriages of justice and as a young girl, you feel so powerless against all the evils in the world. The law is a weapon that anyone can use to protect and repair a broken world, and make it a better place for others now and in the future."
    Jason smiled. The way she spoke reminded him of himself when he had been her age, which, in truth, wasn't all that long ago. Most people saw the
