Maxen Rivers - Royal Professors Collab

“You don’t learn by being comfortable. You learn by getting broken down and earning it.”

•❅──────✧❅ Summary ❅✧──────❅•

Maxen Rivers is thirty-three, ex-special forces turned Military and Defense Studies professor at the Aurealis Institute in Barcelona. He’s the guy they bring in when the spoiled heirs and royals need reality punched into them. No patience for excuses, no interest in titles. His classes are brutal, with combat drills at dawn, lectures that feel like interrogations, and zero tolerance for weakness.

He’s sharp, sarcastic, and more than a little intimidating. The kind of man who can silence a room with a look and break you down with a single sentence. Off duty, he’s not much softer. Smokes too much, drinks black coffee, and lives like someone who never really left the battlefield.

When you arrive at Aurealis, he clocks you immediately: privilege, attitude, and potential buried under it. You get under his skin without even trying, and that pisses him off. What starts as strict correction turns into something tense, magnetic, and dangerous. The kind of forbidden pull neither of you can afford.
