If anyone were to see Jungkook right now, raiding through Taehyung's unpacked luggage, they would mistake him for a troublesome child, but Taehyung wasn't just "anyone". He was a person who was chocked, threatened and had his blood sucked out from his body, by this very rampant being. He was au courant with his proficiency in committing a murder. So instead of acting like a foolish teen holding firmly onto their pride, with no power whatsoever to protect themselves, Taehyung decided to act exactly like Jungkook wanted him to, that is if he wants to stay alive the next time the latter gets hungry. 

"What are you doing with my clothes? My lord." Taehyung tested how that word felt on his tongue, only to conclude that it felt weird and unessential. But whatever pleases his employer he guessed.

Now that Taehyung thought about it, would he get paid for his newly appointed position of a servant or servitor as Jungkook termed it? Although he doubts that a vampire who planned to hibernate himself for 6 months would go under the casket with his pockets stuffed, as that would have been very pointless and useless. So that would mean that Jungkook probably doesn't have even a penny on him. Bringing him to a conclusion that his vampire lord cum employer cum captor was broke.

So much for being an elite.

"Inspecting your bizzare choice of attire. All your garments are made of exceedingly thin fabrics, giving me an expression that you must be very poor. What must you wear to a Gala norman? Or were you never invited to one given your low social status?" Taehyung calmly took the insult thrown at him, as he reassured himself that Jungkook was probably older than his great great great grandmother and if she were to see his clothes right now then she would probably say the same thing. It was too early to start a twitter trend against him.

"With all due respect my lord, I just got my blood sucked out of my body, by the courtesy of you, so I'm at a very feeble, physical and mental state right now. It is not everyday that I get held captive by a vampire, and neither do I fantasize about it. So you insulting my fashion sense and financial state which I'm already sensitive about, is only adding to my frustration and unfortunately I can't even act on it, because that would only drive me closer to my end. Why don't we try to maintain a respectful professional relationship, by not degrading the other person every chance we get? I think that would benefit us both, as you need me more than...well I don't need you at all." He finished his rambling with a smile, watching Jungkook's expression stoic expression turn into a deprecated one, as if despising his words. Taehyung still considered this a progress as he was at least not getting chocked to death.

"You have a very impudent habit of not answering my questions norman. I absolutely despise that. We are both a part of a food chain and I happen to stand on top of it. So I see it a necessity to inform you that the respect you show me is not your kindness, but an obligation, while the one I show you is my courtesy. In conclusion, the next time you go running your, what I see, a very dehydrated mouth, I suggest you keep all these facts considered." Despite how badly Taehyung wanted to land a blow on Jungkook's handsome face, he tried to make himself understand that his captor wasn't actually wrong. If they were to take in consideration, their strengths and supernatural powers, Taehyung would fall on the very end of the scale, which in turn would put Jungkook on top of him on the ladder of food chain. But there was one more rule that applied to the criteria of ranking, and that was 'survival of the fittest.' If Jungkook's kind were more powerful than them, then why were they not ruling right now? If not for Jungkook's sudden "re-vamption", then they were very much extinct from the face of earth. Taehyung of course valued his life and kept his thoughts to himself, subconsciously wetting his lips in the process.

"It's summer, so it's natural for them to get chapped. You wouldn't know since you're not a human." Taehyung said in defense of his otherwise healthy lips.
