In the world Elon inhabits, shadows obscure the painful truth surrounding his mother's absence, a mystery he's blamed for by his father. Hidden behind closed doors are untold secrets.
Into this tumultuous life strides an enigmatic figure, known simply as the bodyguard. Elon's reputation as a brat is well-established, and their initial encounters brim with tension and, at times, a hint of aggression. Yet, within this icy exterior lies a profound contradiction.
The bodyguard, nameless but unwavering, offers an unexpected solace, a refuge from the turmoil that engulfs Elon. However, his methods can sometimes border on roughness, echoing the harsh world Elon knows.
Elon remains a pariah, a bully shunned by all, but no one has dared to peer beyond the frosty veneer. The bodyguard's mission is not to protect him, but to prevent him from inflicting harm upon others. In this unlikely alliance, an intricate dance begins.
Beneath Elon's cold demeanor lies a heart riddled with cracks, a soul burdened with concealed tears. He'd rather hurt others or himself than reveal his secrets. Yet, the astute bodyguard senses the unspoken, even if it sparks frustration and anger.
Their journey, marked by mystery and unspoken pain, unravels the enigma of Elon's world. Despite the resentment and defiance, a fragile connection takes root, offering a glimmer of warmth in the icy darkness that surrounds them.
"I was having the worst day in a long string of worst days. Growing up on the streets in the middle of monster apocalypse put a lot of things in perspective - however, meeting one of these creatures personally was the crown jewel of my bad luck. He stalks, he claims, he does not understand..."
A more realistic take on an interest from someone inhuman. It's not rosy, it won't be smooth, there's no instantaneous affection. There's struggle, ambiguity and things going from bad to worse on an express train. All that said, a semblance of a happy ending will be reached.
