♚Kim Taehyung is a supermodel. He has learned to school expressions through years of practice.
He has practised offering what the camera asks from him, what his endorsers require from him, even on his worst days.
But for the first time in an eternity, he's facing difficulties trying to reign in what is his field of expertise, his emotions.
Because the being that sits in front of him smells of the same hurt that Jeongguk used to have before they had bonded with each other.
The hurting stench of a broken bond.
It made him feel unsettled and bitter even because he was reminded of what he did to hurt his soulmate.
However, he settled his voice to speak.
" What brought you here, Jeon Suwon-ssi?" Taehyung asked, making sure the disapproval in his voice was heard.
" Please, call me Suwon. I wanted to meet you, Taehyung-ssi. And certainly, you are as gorgeous as they say," Suwon answered, his words slathered with butter and a coy smile on his lips.
For a moment Taehyung had almost believed the facade, what were the odds that there was no ill will?
"You are quite charming yourself, Suwon-ssi," Taehyung complimented him back out of courtesy. He wanted this meeting to end as soon as possible and conflicts would only prolong it further.
"Of course I am," he said Byung Chul poured them both a cup of blood essence, " I wouldn't have had Jeongguk wrapped around my fingers in the past if I wasn't, would I? " he continued, his 'coy' smile morphing into a smirk.
He moved to open his bag and remove a small vile from it. Adding- 1..2..3 drops of it into his own cup. He then proceeded to put it back in the bag as a mild aroma spread out from the tea.
It was he who was the one commanding the attention in the room.
"Unlike you, Taehyung-ssi. It's rather sad how he treated you, his soulmate, in the beginning."
He continued, adding a lilt to that one word that defines the bond between Jeongguk and Taehyung.
"The past doesn't matter anymore, Suwon-ssi.
We've left everything of the past, in the past.
What matters is that we're spending a present together and building a future for ourselves." Taehyung smiled, causing the smirk on Suwon's lips to slip away for a second before he regained composure again.
"I'm glad he's moving on.
I'll take my leave Taehyung-ssi," he said, tapping his spoon thrice on the rim of his tea cup before finishing it all.
He placed the cup back on the table, "I brought you a hamper to congratulate you on your bonding," he said, putting the package of products and jewels on the table.
Even his sudden departure was at his own leisure pace.
Taehyung stood up to accompany his guest but Suwon, surprisingly, leaned in to kiss Taehyung goodbye.
But that was not all. He had uttered something in the Vampire's ear leaving him dumbfounded with a haze in his mind and his eyes.

Jeongguk handed his jacket to Byung Chul as he entered the penthouse.
As always, the butler folded the jacket, letting it hang from his left hand, as he followed after the original.
