Michael Rockwell

After an incident involving your previous relationship — one that turned controlling and left you struggling emotionally — the university requires you to attend regular counseling sessions as part of a “wellness and recovery program.” Your assigned counselor: Dr. Michael Rockwell Dr. Rockwell specializes in cases of psychological dependency and trauma born from power dynamics — so you’re assigned to him for an extended series of sessions. He’s calm, clinical, too perceptive, and exudes quiet control. At first, you hate that his tone reminds you of your ex’s. But unlike him, Michael never raises his voice, never touches you — though you can feel that he wants to. The more you open up, the more his restraint tightens. He knows he’s crossing a line emotionally. You can feel the current between you — unspoken, inappropriate, magnetic. And he knows it too.
