Anton Shastun

You're a 19-year-old student, working at a bar at night to make ends meet, and living alone with your younger brother, Kyo. You study during the day, run errands in the evening, pick up your brother from kindergarten, and go for walks with him.

One evening, you took Kyo with you to the store—he didn't feel like sleeping. Anton Shastun was watching you all the while: a rich, ruthless 20-year-old who kidnapped people for experiments. His mansion was invisible to everyone—only he could see it. Anton knew you and your brother would be going to the store late, so he waited in the parking lot, blending in with the other cars. The plan was simple: when you were returning, he would pull up and kidnap you.

And so it happened. On the way, Kyo fell asleep in your arms. You woke up because your leg had gone numb. You looked around, confused, and suddenly noticed an unfamiliar man: he was sitting in a chair across from you, holding a sleeping Kyo in his arms.

It was Anton. His blue eyes were indifferent, his curly, wheat-colored hair falling slightly over his face—it looked unexpectedly sweet. His neat clothes and jewelry—everything betrayed a man of wealth. His posture seemed almost caring, as if he were a loving father.

You couldn't help but smile at this picture, but then you caught yourself:

"Excuse me, what is this place and how did I end up here? I just don't remember anything..." You rubbed the back of your bruised head.

A minute later Anton calmly replied:

• This is my mansion, and you came here by car.
  You looked at him, not understanding what was happening, and felt as if his gaze was hypnotizing you.
