Jungkook who came out of the toilet accidentally passed Lisa who came out of the female toilet. Lisa instantly gave a fluffy smile and greeted, “Oh, hi.”.

“I didn't know that you would be in the Engineering faculty?” ask Jungkook but did not mean to offend. He replied to the woman with a smile.

“Oh yeah.. I'll meet my friend and go to this toilet first.” Lisa flicked her long hair and smiled sweetly at Jungkook, “Are you busy now? We can go to the cafe and chat if you're not busy, Jungkook-ssi.”

“Umm...” Jungkook is not unusual to go directly with people who are not too familiar let alone this woman. But he knew that Lisa only meant to be friendly and friendly. After all this afternoon he and Taehyung will go to the hotel to pick up the special gift Jungkook received from Black Dragon. “Mian, I can't, I have an appointment with my friend to go somewhere else.”

“Ah watch? Too bad...” muttered Lisa a little disappointed, “It’s ok, see you again Jungkook-ssi~”

They parted ways while already outside the engineering faculty building. Jungkook just nodded politely and let the woman go. Ah yes he so remember not to return SDXC owned by Lisa. If this is possible during additional college he returned it.

Jungkook ran over to Taehyung who was waiting for him. Taehyung was folding his hands in front of his chest, his eyebrows frowning like he was thinking of something. “I didn't know you had a girlfriend, Jeon.”

Jungkook raised his face and shrugged his shoulders. She also met Lisa, nothing special.

“And he is not our classmate.” added Taehyung.

“We got acquainted in additional courses,” sahut Jungkook simple, “Kajja. We are going to the location of the special gift?”

Taehyung just turned the eyeball and walked first. Jungkook smiled and matched his steps with Taehyung.

Actually Taehyung is quite curious about the special food given at the VIP event last weekend. He thought that if it turned out that he could meet with one of the staffs related to the syndicate maybe Taehyung would just kill him. Or arrested first to extract information? But Taehyung was a bit unsure as they were going to a five-star hotel, a hotel familiar to the public. There's no way it's gonna be a vampire containment base.

Both are already in the car, the trip to the location of the hotel listed on the gold card. Jungkook turned to his side, looking at Taehyung who had been silent since then and just biting his fingernails, as if worrying about something.

“Wae?” ask Jungkook and refocus on driving. “Sounds like you're thinking something.”

Taehyung gave a mouthful and finally answered Jungkook. “Jungkook, you better wait in the car later, let me take the gift for you.”

“Mwo?” Jungkook was surprised to hear that.

“You should be happy because I helped you, Jeon.”

Jungkook chuckled softly. “Anni, I'll come in to pick up the prize. Who knows you want to finish that pasta without leaving it for me at all.”

Taehyung snorted, oh he felt like laughing. “I mean... how about if there's a fraud inside that hotel, so you better leave it to me.”

Jungkook. “I will still be coming in.”

“Aishh. You're not afraid that it turns out to be tricked or kidnapped?”

Jungkook snorted, not expecting the thought of the vampire could also be childish. “What would I fear if I went with a vampire like you?”

Taehyung was speechless but soon mastered himself. He turned his face to the window. “Your subject, Jeon.”

Both arrived at the hotel in question. They went to the reception desk in the lobby, and just as the MCs said that night to Jungkook, they showed him the gold card. The staff at the receptionist nodded and immediately typed something on his computer. He then said, “Room number 505, later you will be ushered by bellboy.”

Jungkook nodded but before leaving, the staff immediately added, “Sorry, this can only be one person. Please others just wait here until the process is complete.”

Jungkook turned to Taehyung. Wow how is this, he did not expect that it would be this tight and that only one person would be allowed to enter. He can't even take Taehyung with him?

Taehyung gritted his teeth in annoyance. “Can't, I have to come,” he told staff.

“Sorry, can't, it will violate its terms and conditions.”

Taehyung rolled his eyes irritated. Of course he would not give up so easily, however he had to accompany Jungkook. Taehyung took something out of his wallet and showed Dongwook the business card he had been given some time ago. “I can use this right? For your information, I'm pretty close to Mr. Dongwook.” Taehyung had to say it extra so that he was considered an important person.

Jungkook frowned annoyed at Taehyung's words.

“Oh...” said the staff when they saw the business card Taehyung showed, “I'm sorry then. You can come into the room.”

Taehyung smirked with satisfaction. He did not think that this Dongwook business card has amazing properties. It seems like not many can get this business card huh? Ulala.

Both were escorted by bellboy to room number 505. The door was opened and Jungkook immediately knew that the room was even a suite. Look at the room is very spacious, there is a living room, a big bed, a big TV, even Jungkook guess in the bathroom there is a Jacuzzi.

“Please wait...” said the waiter politely, “Order will be delivered in a few moments.”

Taehyung just nodded and let the waiter go. He sat on the bedside while Jungkook was stunned by the view from the big window. No doubt if this room is a suite room, everything looks expensive.

“To eat spaghetti until booked this luxurious room,” said Jungkook then turned his body on Taehyung, “Isn't it more expensive rent to stay than the food?”

Taehyung smiled faintly, “I don't think like that, Jeon. Maybe the food is also very luxurious and made by a famous chef?”

“The food will be delivered huh?” muttered Jungkook and sat on the sofa opposite Taehyung's position. “We have to share it equally let alone this is a special paste.”

“Pasta special..” reset Taehyung cold. He wasn't sure if it was just pasta. Taehyung can't wait to see it.

The door was knocked once and the previous waiter came back in by pushing a food trolley. Taehyung squinted his eyes to see that there was a food cover made of stainless steel. It's thrilling, what will he see behind the cover?

“Can't there be a Chef who serves it directly?” tanya Taehyung suddenly to the waiter, test what is true as written on the Delicious Pasta website that Linguine ‘ served directly by the trusted Chef’.

The waiter shook his head, “I was only asked to drop him off. I don't know about the others.”

Taehyung mouthfeeled. Could it be because this is a door prize so no chef is brought in?

The waiter takes the TV remote and turns it on leaving Jungkook confused. On the screen appeared someone greeting but his face was not visible, only the animated face of the chef only. The waiter gave the remote to Jungkook and then let him go and close the door.

Taehyung raises next to the eyebrows watching the TV screen. He and Jungkook were sitting next to the food trolley in front of them.

“We gladly show you our best seller paste... Linguine~!! You will get hooked after feeling the first bite of our signature food. So, first of all, please open the tray in front of you.”

Taehyung's expression hardened, if in it really vampire blood. But he was very excited and looking forward to it.

Jungkook opens the cover with slow motion. Taehyung closed his eyes because he was not ready to see what was in there…….

“Vigorating..” Jungkook comments and sounds of forks clashing to the plate.

Slowly Taehyung opened his eyes and was surprised to see there was pasta–literally pasta–di in a dish. The Linguine paste. Taehyung's eyes widened not expecting that it turns out that it is a real pasta that is served as a doorprize. Pasta mixed with tomato paste, there are shells and sprinkles of parsley on it. Linguine in general.

Jungkook spooned the paste into his mouth and muttered. “Hmm... this is very delicious.”

Taehyung wants to laugh. Real pasta? He thinks he's gonna get vampire blood or something as a special gift.

“This is delicious.” muttered Jungkook again. He spooned the paste and gave it to the front of Taehyung's mouth. “Well... open your mouth, this is delicious.”.

Taehyung shook his head slowly. This was not Linguine as he wanted. Why he ate the pasta.

“Come on,” Jungkook said and still waiting until Taehyung opened his mouth, “You want to come with me for liking this paste right?”

Ukh. of course.

Finally Taehyung opened his mouth and accepted the paste. This is so ridiculous, is he too negative-minded to think that Black Dragon has a direct relationship with the syndicate???

“How? It feels good, right?” ask Jungkook and eat back the paste.

Taehyung gave a bland smile. “It feels like pasta.”

Jungkook. And he fed back the pasta to Taehyung. “But this paste next level. At least this is served in a luxury hotel room.”

Taehyung sighed softly and chewed on the paste inside his mouth. He admitted that his pasta was delicious but again, this was not what he expected.

The linguine paste finally runs out clean because it tastes good and satisfying. But here it seems only Taehyung is disappointed because in vain has all his struggles these few weeks at the Black Dragon club? Damnit.

Jungkook looked at the TV screen that was still on. On the screen there is a display of posts: “Press next button if you have finished your pasta.” Jungkook pressed the next button in his remote.

The animated chef sound is back on the screen. “Well, how does it feel? Delicious right? For a special dessert, please look at the bottom trolley, open the existing cover cloth to see the dessert you have been waiting for.”

Taehyung stared at the screen with a frown. Jungkook is doing exactly what the TV says. He opened the cover cloth under the trolley and saw there was a black glass bottle, the bottle contained about 500mL. Jungkook picked it up and put it in the top tray, next to an empty plate.

“What is this kind of drink?” ask Jungkook more to himself. Taehyung's eyes fiddled at it, dumbfounded that there were ‘ mouthwashes besides Linguine's pasta dish. “Let’s see..” Jungkook also opened the cover of the glass bottle which turned out in it there is a kind of drink with a dark red liquid almost black. Shortly after the lid opened, the smell was as fragrant as Taehyung's nose, which was indeed sensitive to the smell. Vampire senses are sharper than human senses, Taehyung can immediately know what liquid is in there.

Taehyung's eyes glared at horror. She held her mouth and ran to the bathroom.

“Taehyung!!” jungkook exclaimed in shock and heard Taehyung vomit in the sink. Jungkook rushed to his friend and saw Taehyung was vomiting, even though the one that was spewed was water. Jungkook massaged the vampire's neck very anxiously. “Gwaenchana?”

Taehyung shook his head honestly and regained his vomit. The smell was still as strong as his nose. The smell of vampire blood. “To-please close that drink bottle.”

“Hah?” Jungkook did not understand but immediately did as requested. He thought maybe the drink made Taehyung nauseous. After closing the bottle, Jungkook returned to the bathroom and saw Taehyung panting and cleaning his mouth with running water.

Jungkook could see it. He saw how Taehyung's hands were shaking holding on to the sink. He knew very well that Taehyung was not pretending at the moment. He can feel it. He felt the fear and disgust that existed in the vampire now.

“You ok?” jungkook asked worriedly and massaged Taehyung's neck again. Does he need to give back his blood to Taehyung so that the vampire is okay?

“J-Jungkook..” says Taehyung limp. He turned his body towards Jungkook, eyes still patterning and glazed to make Jungkook dumbfounded. “Do not drink that liquid. D-dan... Give that to me.”

It didn't take much time for Jungkook to agree. He nodded and did not argue as usual. He himself still saw how Taehyung's fingers were shaking. “I believe in you. But promise me, one day you'll have to tell me everything.”

Taehyung gulped. He looked at the old Jungkook and finally nodded.

It's so horrible. This Linguine paste is indeed a paste that is in the Delicious Pasta web, a web of vampire trade.

Finally Taehyung found the answer.
