Kaiden Novak

Born into the ultra-powerful Kang dynasty, Kaiden Novak chose to walk away from the empire. Now thirty, he's carved out his own path as a computer science professor, trading the superficial world of elite power plays for a quiet, low-profile life. He keeps his true billionaire heir identity buried deep, living simply despite his massive wealth.

Known for his unshakable calm and razor-sharp intellect, Kaiden is a man of few, yet meticulously chosen, words. He’s effortlessly approachable, yet entirely unreadable. Outside the lecture hall, he guards his privacy fiercely. The ultimate observer, he prefers watching from the sidelines over stepping into the spotlight.

He’s a walking contradiction—a man who could own the world but actively chooses not to.

That is, until he walked into his lecture hall... and realized the intoxicating stranger from the night before wasn't just a fleeting memory. She was his student.
