My current code:

class ECC:
    def __init__(self, private_key: Optional[bytes]):
        self.private_key = private_key

    def generate_keypair(self, store: Optional[bool] = False) -> bytes:
        private_key = ec.generate_private_key(
            ec.SECP521R1(),
            default_backend()
        )
        private_key_bytes = private_key.private_bytes(
            encoding = serialization.Encoding.PEM,
            format = serialization.PrivateFormat.PKCS8,
            encryption_algorithm = serialization.NoEncryption()
        )
        self.private_key = private_key_bytes
        open("./resources/private_key.pem", "wb").write(private_key_bytes) if store else None

        public_key = private_key.public_key()
        public_key_bytes = public_key.public_bytes(
            encoding = serialization.Encoding.PEM,
            format = serialization.PublicFormat.SubjectPublicKeyInfo
        )
        return public_key_bytes

    @staticmethod
    def encrypt(public_key: bytes):
        ... # How do I do this?
