The ball that Jangmi was informed about last minute. It was just yesterday that they were talking about mates, and she wasn't informed of any ball that she was supposed to attend. Suga was the one who informed her about it last night during dinner and she was absolutely baffled. The others were as confused as Suga, who seemed like he didn't know that Jangmi wasn't informed of the ball today.
All of them thought that Jungkook had already told her about the ball and the excuse that Jungkoook gave Jangmi when she confronted him was, "I forgot." That was all that was exchanged between them. Jangmi was starting to think that she had dreamt about the night Jungkook came into her room to offer the comfort that she needed. It was not real, she was brainwashing herself into thinking that but she knew, it was true. But Jungkook was being more hostile towards her.
Was it because he was disappointed in her? Was it because he was disgusted that she watched her brother got raped but she did nothing about it? What exactly was it that made Jungkook become hostile towards? She had spent the whole night, tossing and turning in bed just thinking about it. No matter how many times she tried to keep his face away from her mind, it was near impossible.
Jangmi groaned in frustration before she decided to proceed to the washroom to wash herself up before the maids come into her room and doll her up.
As soon as she left the washroom, she was greeted by 3 maids. One of them holding a dress with a cover over it to make sure that no dirt could touch the dress, one holding a make-up set, while the last was holding a bag that looked like it was for her hair, since she had a comb in her right pocket of her uniform.
"Please sit over here your highness. We'll prepare you for the ball." One of them gestured Jangmi to the dressing table, and pulled the chair for Jangmi. "Why is everyone calling me your highness?" Jangmi frowned, starting to feel annoyed. First the chef, now the maids. Yes, she should feel honored to be called royalty, but the fact was that, she wasn't.
The maid just offered her a smile, not saying anything more as she started doing her hair, which was wet since she just came out of the shower.
It took her almost three hours to finally finish her hair and makeup done. Her butt was already numb for sitting too long. "What time is this ball?" Jangmi asked, eating her late lunch before the lipstick was applied.
"The doors will be open at 6, however you are required to be present at 7, with the King." The maid said, as she touched up her hair. Her hair was split 7:3, and it was permed at the bottom. They put hairspray on the hair so that the hairstyle would stay. They added some glitter after tying a low half ponytail. It was pretty to be honest. She looked good even without the dress on.
"I can just go in at 6 like the others since the difficult part is done." Jangmi said, referring to the hair and makeup. All she had to do was just wear the dress and apply the lipstick and she would be done. She was positive it wouldn't take long to wear the dress.
"Negative your highness. The ballroom will be filled with vampires and even if you don't have a scent, a minor cut would get the attention of all the vampires in the ballroom." One of the maid said, and Jangmi hid a cringe at the title again. 'Your highness'. She still had no idea why she was being called that. More important things at hand, she wasn't informed what the ball was for, and neither was she informed that the whole place would be crawling with more vampires.
She was clueless.
"Vampires? And they want me to attend the ball?" Jangmi asked in disbelief. She was definitely baffled. She desperately wanted to know what was inside Jungkook's head at this moment. He saved her from a vampire, only to get sucked dry by another. That was what Jangmi was expecting.
