This is excellent. I love these characters and the use of the academic setting is perfectly executed. I've read some BDSM stories that feature a professor and student because it's such a good premise, but have found most of them to be pretentious. Yours is not! The way that the text you chose for the characters to read connects to the point of the story all makes this really come alive. It's not just window-dressing to when they discuss Foucault and that keeps this enjoyable and down-to-earth because it comes from a passion for learning. And there are some brilliant lines, too! "I want you to lend yourself to me like a library book," is one of the hottest lines I've read in a long time! Wonderful.
