Vampire In The City
Our Pain

The next day Taehyung skipped college. Jungkook did not understand at all why the vampire did not come to campus. Was it because of their fight yesterday?

Jungkook could not let his sense of alignment why Taehyung did not come to campus, so he guessed that Taehyung might be sick like the last one yesterday because he had not drunk blood. After all, it's been two weeks since Taehyung drank blood, maybe it's time the vampire needs Jungkook's blood again?

Jungkook came to the Kim Brothers' house that afternoon. Fortunately the next class was canceled because the lecturer was sick. Jungkook arrives at the vampire's house and is greeted only by Yoon-gi because the others have not returned.

“Oh, Jungkook-ssi.” say hello Yoongi flat as if not surprised by the presence of Jungkook.

“Taehyung is there?” ask Jungkook politely, “Today he did not lecture.”

“Huh, she is still in her room, she says she wants to skip college due to lack of sleep.”

“Lack of sleep?”

Yongi just shrugged his shoulders. “It just so happens that I also have to go to my shop, you can just go straight to Taehyung's room ya.”

Jungkook nodded and went straight to the 2nd floor towards his friend's room. He thought Taehyung might be sick even though Yoon earlier said Taehyung was sleep-deprived. Jungkook knocked on the door once and entered the room and he saw Taehyung sitting on the bed eating a small piece of melon.

Jungkook was stunned because it seemed Taehyung was fine, not being sick. Taehyung did not lift his face, he still ate his melon.

“You didn't go to college, I thought you were sick like the last one.” muttered Jungkook came closer. Jungkook noticed Taehyung eating it. Taehyung who used to love melons like this. It feels strange to Jungkook, his brain has not been able to accept the fact that the old Taehyung and Taehyung now both like melons.

“Skip class occasionally no problem. At least my presence must remain 80%.” Taehyung said with a flat face.

“But as long as you can come I think you should come.”

“I'm sleep deprived,” said Taehyung, “Night I went to the Black Dragon club and came home at 3 am.”

Jungkook was very surprised to hear it.”Mwo?”

Taehyung smirked a look at Jungkook's face. He wanted to know if Jungkook could still act indifferent after hearing that?

Taehyung placed the empty plate onto the table next to his bed. “Why? Don't you not care anymore, Jungkook?”

Jungkook's jaw hardened in annoyance. “What do you do until you get home at 3 am?”

“I'm with Dongwook,” Taehyung just smile, “We chat while drinking.”

Jungkook is very upset yet speechless. He was very angry but considering yesterday he had told Taehyung that he would not care about the vampire's life anymore, Jungkook had to endure it. He has no business if Taehyung does all that, but Jungkook still can't hold his lips. “A-I don't understand your way of thinking, Taehyung. If you want to chat and drink it's your right but until 3am I think it's too much.”

“I'm a vampire, Jeon. 3 A.m. hours are not outrageous for me.”

Jungkook gritted his teeth. He sat in front of the vampire. “You're a vampire but you still have the image.”

“Image?” Taehyung raised next to the eyebrows. “What am I keeping my image for, Jeon?”

“Because you are Kim Taehyung!” jungkook said and immediately grabbed Taehyung's arms. “Kim Taehyung whom I know is a good, innocent and cheerful friend. Not as messy as you are.”

Taehyung looked at Jungkook with nanar. Again, Jungkook will only continue to compare himself as if the one in front of Jungkook right now is not Kim Taehyung.

“Because I believe one day my friend will return,” Jungkook said still clutching the two arms of the vampire. His eyes grew angry. He didn't know what he was mastering until he said these words to Taehyung. “And you're leaving. So you need to keep my friend's image.”

Taehyung was very impressed to hear Jungkook's words. The man would only continue to hurt her like this and regard her as a stranger or an evil personality who was a parasite on Taehyung's body.

Taehyung threw Jungkook's hand. He stood up out of bed. His emotions were currently starting to explode incoherently, there was a sense of offense and pain in his heart. He thought he had Jeon Jungkook's confession. He thought he could trust Jeon Jungkook. Until now, Jungkook still has not accepted his existence, what Jungkook has been with him because he hopes that Taehyung's old personality will return again. This was very painful for Taehyung.He again felt alone and had no one to lean on.

Jungkook also stood up and faced Taehyung. Anger may be overpowering until he says negative things to the vampire. Jungkook is only anxious, he is afraid Taehyung is in danger especially the night club is also a place where hunters used to patrol.

“I just–“ Jungkook so frustrating. “You have to take care of yourself. Night clubs aren't a place for vampires to play around. There are many dangers out there.”

Taehyung grunts. If Jungkook could get angry like this at him wouldn't Taehyung also be able to do the same?

Taehyung advanced towards Jungkook and grabbed hold of the human's neck, preparing to strangle him. “Danger? What kind of danger do you think?”

Jungkook's body is pushed against the wall and the vampire holds Jungkook's neck. Taehyung does not attempt to strangle to kill him but with Taehyung's strength, Jungkook's neck will still leave a reddish mark.

Jungkook held his breath looking at Taehyung. Is Taehyung going to kill him?

“Jungkookie..?” Next to Taehyung's eyes turned white and he accidentally mentioned the nickname that Taehyung used to say first.

Jungkook's eyes are growing.

“You think I don't know what danger means?” whispered Taehyung with a smirk, “How did you deliberately wear a silver ring to harm me. How did you take me to your house full of silver ornaments… Or how do you frame me and send me to a place where the hunter is ready to kill me?”

Jungkook surprised. Taehyung's words resurrect the flashback of the past as he nearly harms Taehyung.

“You think I don't know, Jungkookie, that you want to kill me?” Taehyung. His wet eyes looked at Jungkook full of anger, not yet his terrifying white eyes.

“Akuilah... if you ever tried to kill this innocent Taehyung who is now in front of you.”

Jungkook's eyes turned teary, he choked on the heat. Taehyung's eyes look with one white eye, Taehyung's hand that was strangling him…

“Did you ever think of it?” whispered Taehyung, “I know how you've done to hurt me, Jungkookie, yet you still think I’m the monster?”

Taehyung hits the wall next to Jungkook until it crumbles. He gripped the wall with his free hand from strangling Jungkook. He crushed the concrete stone until the powder in his hand. Of course Taehyung can do the same thing on Jungkook's neck that he is giggling. He could have done it…

Taehyung's hand took off Jungkook's neck. He immediately turned around, hiding the tears that had already flowed. This conversation is useless. He knew from the beginning that he and Jungkook would never agree on anything.

Guilt strikes Jungkook again. The old wounds that had apparently still not healed, only brought him back the trauma. Taehyung was right, everything Taehyung said was true. Jungkook tried to kill Taehyung in various ways, hurting the vampire without thinking about his friend's feelings at all. So all this time... all this time Taehyung knew? And then what distinguishes the present Taehyung and the former Taehyung? Taehyung now remembers every incident in the past, remembering how Jungkook hurt him. And Jungkook shouldn't say that Taehyung is a monster or an evil personality. Taehyung remains the same as before…

Jungkook cried and covered his face with both hands. How can he make up for all his mistakes? How can he fix all this?

***

After Jungkook struggles with his anxiety, he decides to go to a nightclub and meet Taehyung. His conversation with Taehyung this afternoon was too painful. Jungkook realizes that he needs to apologize and confesses his mistake to Taehyung. All the painful things he had done to Taehyung, Jungkook would admit it and apologize sincerely.

Jungkook arrived at the nightclub at about 11 p.m. He immediately looked for Taehyung on the 1st floor. He searches the bar, passing the dancing pool packed with dancing humans, trying to find where the vampire is. However, Taehyung is not at the club. Just now Jungkook had sent a message to Hoseok and hyung said Taehyung had indeed gone to Black Dragon.

If Taehyung isn't on the 1st floor now, could it be that the vampire is on the VIP floor with Dongwook?

Finally Jungkook took a seat at the bar and decided he would wait for Taehyung to come out of the VIP floor.

Yang Jungkook does not know, that Taehyung is actually not in the Black Dragon club.

.

.

At about 8 p.m., Taehyung went to the Black Dragon. His head was very tired and almost broke due to his quarrel with Jungkook. He also got carried away with feelings. Why is she crying? Why would he care if Jungkook hurt her or not? Until then he will only be considered a monster. Others will never care about their feelings. Hasn't it been a long time for people like that to her? That is why he is now a mutant vampire, none other than because of those savages who never cared about his feelings.

Arriving at the Black Dragon, Taehyung meets Dongwook. The man immediately offered to stay the night at Dongwook's place in exchange for a Delicious Pasta member card for Taehyung. Without thinking long, Taehyung also agreed.

That was the background of why Taehyung was now in one of Dongwook's luxury villas. The villa was very luxurious, showing clearly how great Dongwook was. The private villa has a large swimming pool and a large back garden. I don't know how many villas like this Dongwook has.

Taehyung walked while looking around the spacious room which was the main room. The lights are made of crystal, the painting on display is also a famous painting. Taehyung is trying to detect whether there are vampires here or not. How disappointed Taehyung because he did not feel the existence of vampires in the villa. This indicates that the place he was heading was not the headquarters of a vampire sales syndicate but just a private residence belonging to Dongwook alone.

Taehyung heard a jazz music suddenly playing in this room. He looked back and saw Dongwook just punch something on the turntable. It was a device used to play songs from CDs. The sound is very high quality, it sounds like 4D.

Dongwook gives a sweet smile.”You like jazz?”

Taehyung tilted his head and approached Dongwook. “Lumayan.”

“I used to be alone in this house.” said Dongwook and sat on one of the sofas.

“It turns out true that you are a lonely man?”

“True...” said Dongwook and took the glass that already contains whiskey, the waiter who had prepared it. “But now I'm not lonely anymore.”

Taehyung paused and sat down in front of Dongwook.

“Let's toast to our union.” mumbled Dongwook while winking and lifting his glass into the air. He glanced at Taehyung to also take his glass and toast.

Taehyung picked up the whiskey glass and lifted it into the air. He will follow Dongwook's foolish actions even though Taehyung will never give himself up to unite with someone like Dongwook.

“Cheers.” said Dongwook then drink followed by Taehyung who also immediately downed his drink trying to make the man happy.

“So what will we do tonight?” taehyung asked while leaning his body against the sofa to relax more. Whiskey makes his body very light and a little stifled like this.

Dongwook took something out of his shirt pocket. He threw a black card at the table. “This is your member card, Taehyung-ssi. With this you can become an official consumer of my culinary business, with the barcode on this card you do not need to use corneas or fingerprints.”

“Whoaa... perfect!” taehyung said happily. He took the card and watched it carefully. Means this card not only can he use, hyungya others can use this card to access the site of the vampire trade syndicate. It's getting easier.

“You know, Taehyung-ssi,” Dongwook said with a smirk, “Since the beginning I was attracted to you because of your beautiful eyes.”

“Huh?” Taehyung looked at Dongwook. It seems Dongwook's shadow turned into two probably due to the effects of alcohol in Taehyung. He tried to stay focused, he even had a glass and it was like this?

“Club Black Dragon is not an ordinary club.” said Dongwook while playing his glass, “There is one discotheque light that we have is a special lamp that emits a blitz. That's my way of distinguishing my guest, Taehyung-ssi.”

Taehyung raised his eyebrows inexplicably. And suddenly he felt very sleepy. Taehyung tries to control his body.

“My to detect my guest who is a vampire.” Dongwook smirked and drank the rest of his whiskey. His smirk grew longer as he looked at Taehyung's shocked eyes.

“Mwo?”

“The special gift your friend got was also the way I used to play vampires like you, Taehyung-ssi.”

Damn it! Taehyung never expected it. Taehyung tried to gather his strength but he felt his body getting weaker. Now he began to realize that it seemed like Dongwook was giving something to his drink.

“Relax...” said Dongwook whose voice is now faint-sayup because Taehyung's eyes are slowly closing. “Now you are entirely mine, Taehyung-ssi.”

Taehyung was unable to move his body and his eyes were forced to shut due to the effects of drugs in his drink. All of this was beyond his plans.It never occurred to him that Dongwook knew his identity in the first place.

This.. doom.

Jungkooks…

🎃🎃

Okay so there's a plot twist here, if Dongwook already knows Taehyung is a vampire. How did Taehyung fare?
