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 have a mate.
I marked my mate!
I don't know what came over me. The kiss was so intense, and i could feel it all the way down to my freaking toes. It was amazing, it was everything. I got caught up in the moment, and now I've sealed my fate.
To someone I wish I didn't. He's gonna be the fucking Alpha of our pack. What am i supposed to do with that?
I don't want that responsibility, and I don't need it. I'm not capable of caring about it. So what did I do? Seal. My. Fate."
