they weren't even supposed to be here, but somehow, as an aberration of nature, they simply just are. they just have to make do of what they have and need. and what they need right now is to hunt. going without feeding for more than three days wasn't recommended but between the council meetings and personal schedules, jongin was having a hard time putting his foot down, prince of the damned or not.

there was joohyun too. jongin wasn't her sire as he was not sanctioned to sire anyone without the permission of the council. but joohyun was under his care and he made it a point that he would by her side to teach her the ways. it was a lot more difficult now, the emergence of social media and the hyper vigilance of humans. during the war, bodies could easily pile up, and vampires made the earth its banquet.

jongin pushed at the thoughts of blood lust, guilt easily swimming in because he was going to face joohyun in a few minutes. jongin hazard parks -- illegal parks -- in front of their building, taking long quick steps to the lobby to find joohyun, a small smile playing on his lips as he taps her on the shoulder. "lady," he starts, voice deep yet full of mirth. "let's go or i'll get towed."

'more human than a vampire', she thought. jongin was right. he was always right. there was always a part of joohyun that couldn't quite adapt to vampirism. it was that same part within whatever was left of her soul that longed to experience life in the daylight again, or the ability to just eat food and feel full from it. unfortunately; not many vampires looked upon humans in a pleasurable manner. a concept she could never understand - because they were all human at one point, right?

her insides twisted at the fact she hadn't fed in over two days. it's normal, apparently. even more so for those like her who hated the concept of 'hunting'. donated blood was more of her thing, but that was in limited quantities nowadays as the royal families were weeding out illegal blood harvesting practices as result of new hunting rules. those rules and all the action being a big reason jongin was so busy. bless him and all his patience.

she was twirling about the empty lobby of their apartment building, her skirt fluttering up in waves as she had spun. joohyun waited for her partner-in-crime to find her. her back ended up turned towards the door as she surveyed the decor. they didn't change things up too often in there, but irene was always quick to notice it when they did. the tap on her shoulder pulls her away from her thoughts - and she turns to see the tall devil she's come to claim as hers. "sir," she begins. "perhaps you should have parked in the parking lot like you're supposed to." she jokes, hooking her arm onto jongin's before practically tugging him out the door, waving bye to the staff as she cooed. "how was the meeting, darling?"
