00:00You dare slap my hand away?
00:06Didn't want a drink?
00:07Let me help.
00:26That scent.
00:28Four hundred years I've encountered countless types of blood.
00:32None has ever made my fangs stir on their own.
00:35The King of the Night.
00:36What is he doing here?
00:38And the way he's looking at me.
00:40Why is it so strange?
00:49Donna Grian!
00:50No, we were just colleagues having dinner.
00:53Just joking around.
00:58I have never seen anyone freeze an entire corridor without saying a single word.
01:08Are you alright?
01:10I'm fine.
01:12Bold.
01:13Just didn't think about consequences.
01:15He said I was bold.
01:16What he doesn't know is I'm just used to never showing weakness.
01:19In this world, if a human girl cries, shows fear, or goes soft, no one's coming to help.
01:26He stopped.
01:27I thought he was going to say something.
01:30Instead, he just looked down at my feet.
01:37What are you doing?
01:38Carlos, bring the car.
01:41Yes, mi señor.
01:42In this world, humans aren't alone.
01:45Vampires, werewolves, elves, brujos.
01:49They share the same city with us.
01:51Most humans never set foot in their territory.
01:54Me?
01:54I work here.
01:56My name is Isabella Reyes.
01:5823 years old.
02:00Human intern at Grupo Montereno.
02:03No magic.
02:04No powers.
02:05We can't even get lunch before the elves.
02:11Isabella, company dinner tonight.
02:13Want to come?
02:14Thanks, but I'm busy tonight.
02:16Diego, werewolf low-ranking staff, three years and counting.
02:20His greatest talent?
02:22Networking.
02:23What I didn't know then was that I was about to fall into a fateful, dangerous love
02:29with the most powerful vampire in the world.
02:33Grupo Monterena.
02:35On the surface, Latin America's largest financial empire.
02:40In truth, the most powerful vampire family in the dark world, and the one standing at
02:46the top of it all is the king of the night, Adrian Vasquez.
02:51400 years old, cold, silent, never attends social events.
02:56Legend says he single-handedly destroyed an entire rival blood clan's underground lair.
03:16I shouldn't have come.
03:17Diego said it was a welcome party for new hires.
03:23Turns out they just wanted to mess with me.
03:28Come on, Isabella.
03:29A toast to you.
03:32Sorry, I need to go.
03:34A human intern working in the dark world.
03:37Don't you know the rules?
03:39Touch me and see what happens.
03:40My phone's sharing my location.
03:42If I'm not out in 20 minutes, my friend calls the police.
03:46The police?
03:46You think human cops have jurisdiction in a dark world bar?
03:52You dare slap my hand away?
03:59Didn't want a drink?
04:00Let me help.
04:11Don- Don Adrian?
04:22That scent.
04:24400 years, I've encountered countless types of blood.
04:28None has ever made my fangs stir on their own.
04:30The king of the night.
04:32What is he doing here?
04:33And the way he's looking at me.
04:36Why is it so strange?
04:39Her.
04:40You're the one bullying her?
04:52Don Agrian!
04:54No, we were just colleagues having dinner.
04:57Just joking around.
05:02I have never seen anyone freeze an entire corridor without saying a single word.
05:11You like pouring drinks for girls?
05:13Please, I'll never do it again!
05:16Dove Adrian!
05:18Don't worry, you won't die.
05:23Call the authorities, all of them taken in.
05:26Yes, mi senor.
05:36Are you alright?
05:38I'm fine.
05:39Bold.
05:40Just didn't think about consequences.
05:42He said I was bold.
05:44What he doesn't know is I'm just used to never showing weakness.
05:47In this world, if a human girl cries, shows fear, or goes soft, no one's coming to help.
05:53He stopped.
05:55I thought he was going to say something.
05:57Instead, he just looked down at my feet.
06:04What are you doing?
06:06Carlos, bring the car.
06:08Yes, mi senor.
06:10Put me down!
06:10I can walk by myself!
06:12Hold on.
06:13Huh?
06:13If you don't hold on, you'll fall.
06:16His body is so cold, like marble under moonlight.
06:19But his arms holding me, they don't waver at all.
06:25The wound on your lip.
06:30It's nothing, just a scrape.
06:34You don't have to be this close.
06:36Don't move.
06:47Don Adrian?
06:49Are you alright?
06:51I'm fine.
06:52The ointment is applied.
06:54Mi senor's eyes changed color.
06:56In four hundred years, no blood has ever made his eyes shift.
07:01This girl, what is her blood?
07:03Carlos, drive.
07:06Stop staring.
07:07Yes, mi senor.
07:11He has the coldest face I've ever seen.
07:15So why is everything he does so gentle?
07:19But that moment just now, why did he look like he was enduring something?
07:33Where am I?
07:34This room is ten times bigger than my dorm.
07:41Someone treated all my wounds.
07:43Was it him?
07:55You're awake?
07:57Diedrian.
07:57Thank you for last night.
08:07This is...
08:08You dropped it in the corridor last night.
08:11He picked up my glasses.
08:12The king of the night, a four hundred year old vampire king, bending down to retrieve
08:18a human intern's glasses.
08:20He even remembered they were mine.
08:22Don't go to places like that alone anymore.
08:24You know what dark world bars are like.
08:27Understood.
08:28Carlos.
08:31Take her back.
08:32Yes, mi senor.
08:33He's clearly sending me away.
08:36But the way he does it, why does it sound like he's worried about me?
08:44Isabella, are you okay?
08:46Where were you last night?
08:47I called you a hundred times.
08:49What happened to your foot?
08:50You're hurt.
08:51I'm fine.
08:51Just a small cut.
08:52It'll heal soon.
08:53This is Sofia Vasquez, my college roommate and best friend.
08:57She has an identity I wouldn't learn about until much later.
09:00She's the niece of the king of the night, Adrienne Vasquez.
09:03But right now, to me, she's just an ordinary girl who loves gossip, cries easily, and laughs
09:08even easier.
09:09Wait a second.
09:10The bandage on your foot?
09:12The way it's dressed?
09:12The brand of this ointment?
09:14This is from my family's supply.
09:16Isabella, whose house were you at last night?
09:18Don't get ideas.
09:20A senior just helped me out.
09:21What senior?
09:24Do you know someone called Don Adrion?
09:27Don Adrion?
09:28You mean my uncle?
09:32So you're telling me my uncle carried you to his car like a princess, personally put ointment
09:38on your wound, and let you sleep at his place?
09:42It's not what you think.
09:44He just happened to rescue me.
09:45My uncle has never done anything just because, in 400 years, he wouldn't even glance at
09:51a stray cat on the street.
09:52It wasn't until this moment that I learned Sofia is Adrienne Vasquez's niece.
09:57She grew up under his care.
09:58Her parents are always away handling family affairs.
10:01Adrienne is practically a father figure to her.
10:04No wonder she knows everything about the dark world.
10:07Oh, right!
10:08Didn't you bake cookies?
10:10Give me some to take to him.
10:11Consider it a thank you gift.
10:13Can he even eat this kind of thing?
10:15Vampires can eat human food.
10:17They just can't taste it.
10:19But wouldn't it be weirder not to give anything?
10:22He saved your life.
10:28Don Adrion, their terms are too harsh.
10:30They want 30% of the profits.
10:33Tell them the terms are non-negotiable, or they needn't come at all.
10:37But they...
10:39I said non-negotiable.
10:44Deal!
10:45Look what I brought you.
10:48Don Adrion, I never properly thanked you.
10:51I baked these cookies myself.
10:53I hope they're to your liking.
10:55Sweet.
10:56For the first time in 400 years, I can taste sweetness.
10:59Not on my tongue.
11:01Somewhere deeper.
11:02A sense that's been dormant for centuries, stirring awake.
11:07Marigolds.
11:08Sunlight.
11:08Agave.
11:09Exactly like her scent.
11:13Well, good.
11:15Acceptable.
11:17When he says acceptable, it means delicious.
11:20In over 20 years, I've never seen him reach for a second piece on his own.
11:25He kept the whole box.
11:27I don't know if I should be happy or afraid.
11:30What does it feel like to be remembered by the king of the night?
11:34Probably like this.
11:35Nothing really happened, but my heartbeat quickens by a beat.
11:45Hmm, not bad.
11:47Standard human cookies?
11:48You actually ate two?
11:50When was the last time you ate human food?
11:52Nothing special.
11:53A gift from my niece's friend.
11:55Wait.
11:55There's a faint scent on this tin.
11:58Margold.
11:58Sunlight.
11:59A human girl's scent, right?
12:01And, viejo, the way you're guarding these cookies is exactly how you guarded the family relics 400 years ago.
12:09You're reading too much into it.
12:11Adrian, 400 years.
12:14I've seen everything.
12:15But the look on your face right now?
12:18That's a first.
12:20Drink your cocktail.
12:22Hey, Adrian.
12:23You're going down, my friend.
12:25What I didn't know was that this box of cookies was just the beginning.
12:29What would truly make the king of the night lose control was still to come.
12:37Mom.
12:38Isabella, your stepfather's on a trip.
12:41Estrella has a fever and I can't leave.
12:43Marco went out drinking with friends at some dark world bar.
12:46Go pick him up.
12:47Mom, you want me a girl to go to a dark world bar in the middle of the night to
12:51pick someone up?
12:52Don't you work at a dark world company?
12:55You know the area.
12:56Marco's only 17, he's just a kid.
12:59You're his older sister.
13:01What's wrong with looking out for your brother?
13:03Marco isn't my brother.
13:05He's my stepfather's son from his previous marriage.
13:08My mom never invites me home for dinner.
13:11But whenever something goes wrong, she suddenly remembers her eldest daughter.
13:15Send me the location.
13:20It's wrong.
13:22Nothing, just going out for a bit.
13:24In the middle of the night?
13:25I'll be back soon.
13:27Go back to sleep.
13:28I didn't tell Sophia.
13:29She'd worry.
13:31Besides, I've been handling things like this alone since I was a kid.
13:40A dark world bar.
13:41Not a place for humans.
13:43But I've been here too many times.
13:45Always to pick up Marco.
13:49Marco, get up.
13:50We're leaving.
13:51Don't touch me.
13:52Who are you?
13:54I'm your sister.
13:56Get up.
14:01I'm your sister.
14:05Ooh, a little girl coming to pick someone up all alone.
14:08Bold move.
14:09Move.
14:09What's the rush?
14:10Sit down and have a drink.
14:11Here we go again.
14:12Dark world thugs spot a lone human girl and they circle like shark smelling blood.
14:15Mount to three.
14:16You move.
14:17Everyone's fine.
14:18You don't.
14:18I call security.
14:20Security.
14:21Don't you know who runs security around here?
14:25The king of the night.
14:27You have three seconds.
14:33What are you doing here?
14:35Passing by.
14:37Passing by?
14:39The king of the night in the middle of the night passing by a bottom lear dark world bar?
14:51Who is this?
14:54My brother.
14:55He drank too much.
15:02Take him back.
15:06And you, sir?
15:07I'll take her.
15:14The king of the night is taking me back himself?
15:16With what?
15:17Carlos just drove away his car.
15:20He has a second car.
15:23Of course he does.
15:29Adrian.
15:35Don Adrian, were you really just passing by tonight?
15:39Hmm.
15:40He didn't even change his expression, but I don't believe it.
15:43Last time he showed up in that bar horridor when I was being bullied, he also said he was passing
15:47by.
15:47The king of the night twice in the middle of the night passing by bottom line dark world bars?
15:52Um, why do you help me?
15:54I'm just a human intern.
15:57You've already asked that question.
15:59No need to ask it twice.
16:01He won't say a thing.
16:04But he does everything.
16:10What's wrong?
16:12Wait here.
16:17A 400-year-old vampire king, standing in a convenience store, picking out lollipops.
16:24This image, I'll probably never forget it for the rest of my life.
16:30For me?
16:31Once upon a time, there was a little girl who never got candy when she cried.
16:35This is to make up for.
16:36How does he know that when I cried as a child, no one ever bought me candy?
16:40I don't need it.
16:41Take it.
16:42She's holding it in again.
16:43From the first moment I met her, she's always been holding it in.
16:46Holding back tears.
16:47Holding back asking for help.
16:48Holding back showing weakness.
16:49But the more she endures, the more I want to be kind to her.
16:52This feeling.
16:53It's a first in 400 years.
16:55It's different from the blood craving.
16:57The craving makes me want to bite her.
16:59This makes me want to hide her away, where no one can ever hurt her again.
17:03Why did you pat my head?
17:05My hand slipped.
17:10Don Adrian, you've saved me twice.
17:13I have nothing to repay you with, but if there's ever anything I can help, just say the word.
17:17What could you possibly help with?
17:18I can cook.
17:20I can bake cookies.
17:21I could organize your files.
17:24Then give me one thing.
17:25What?
17:26Your number.
17:27You, what do you want my contact desk for?
17:30For convenience, in case you run off to another dark world bar to get yourself killed.
17:36He makes it sound like he's scolding me, but what he's asking for is my contact-esque.
17:41I added myself to meet your contacts.
17:45He added himself to my contacts.
17:49Your profile picture is just black.
17:54Go on.
17:55Send me a message when you're inside.
17:58Why?
17:59So I know you arrived safely.
18:01He's waiting for me to go upstairs.
18:04A 400-year-old king of the night waiting for a 23-year-old human intern to get home safely.
18:13What should I say?
18:15I'm home.
18:16Too short.
18:17Thanks for the ride tonight.
18:19Too formal.
18:20Good night?
18:20Would that be too...
18:30Just one mm.
18:32But my heartbeat deed is loud enough for the whole building to hear.
18:36He said my name.
18:38I pressed the phone against my chest and closed my eyes.
18:41My heart beat each one faster than the last.
18:44Good night.
18:45I haven't said those two words to anyone in 400 years.
18:48Today I did.
18:49I didn't know what to say.
18:50And it took me three tries to hit send.
18:52First I just wrote mm.
18:53Then I delighted it and typed good night at it.
18:55As a bell over.
18:56After I sent it, I stared at the screen for 10 minutes.
19:00400 years and no one has ever said good night to me.
19:04Mi senor, Diego has been detained by the Dark World Enforcement Dissectric.
19:07Three charges.
19:08Harassment of a human, setting a drinking trap, and physical violence.
19:11Maximum sentence, three years in Dark World Prison.
19:13Three years is too short.
19:14Mi senor, under Dark World Law, three years is the maximum.
19:16Then make sure his days in prison are less than comfortable.
19:19Yes, sir.
19:23My lord has checked his phone three times in five minutes.
19:29I've been with him for 400 years.
19:31He's never voluntarily looked at his phone.
19:34What am I doing?
19:35400 years old, texting a human girl that I'll buy her candy.
19:39Mi senor, as requested.
19:41Every flavor of lollipop available, plus 20 kinds of candy.
19:44I didn't know which flavor she prefers, so I bought them all.
19:46Put it on the coffee table.
19:48On the coffee table?
19:50Mi senor, this is your private office.
19:52Problem?
19:53None.
19:54The King of the Night's private office now has a jar of colorful lollipoms.
19:58If the Dark World Council saw this, our entire family would lose face.
20:02What's this?
20:03None of your business.
20:05Strawberry, melon, mango.
20:08Adrian, you haven't eaten sweets in 400 years, and now your office has a jar of rainbow lollipops.
20:13Either you've lost your mind, or it's for someone.
20:16Drink your cocktail.
20:18First cookies, now lollipops.
20:20Viejo, you're going down for a human girl.
20:22No, wait, you haven't gone down yet.
20:24What's this stage called again?
20:26Oh, right.
20:27You're hooked.
20:28Did you come here to cause trouble today?
20:30Wait, wait, let me tell you something serious.
20:32That Diego, he's got someone behind him.
20:35I checked, and he has connections to the Valentina Sombra family.
20:39You locked him up.
20:40The Sombra family won't let it go.
20:43Then let them come.
20:44Definitely hooked.
20:46How many years has it been since I last heard you say, let them come?
20:52Hurry, let me tell you, my uncle seems to be in a good mood today.
20:56Carlos said he actually asked, how is that intern doing lately?
20:59He asked about that intern.
21:01He didn't mention me specifically.
21:02Grupo Mondera has over a thousand employees.
21:05Which intern do you think he's asking about?
21:11Come in.
21:12Don Adrian.
21:15I made some flower pastries.
21:17I'd like you to try them as a return gift for the lollipop.
21:20That taste again.
21:22Everything she makes carries her scent.
21:24Marigols and sunlight.
21:25My sense of taste only awakens when I encounter something connected to her.
21:29What is happening to me?
21:31Acceptable.
21:32Sophia told me, when you say acceptable, it means delicious.
21:40The burn on your hand.
21:41It's nothing.
21:42I accidentally touched the oven while baking.
21:44Let me see.
21:56It's really nothing.
21:58Stay still.
21:59He told me to stay still.
22:01The king of the night shushing me like...
22:03My mind goes completely blank.
22:06Be more careful next time.
22:08Your hands are for baking cookies, not for burning.
22:12Understood.
22:13His hand is shaking.
22:15The king of the night, the hand that could crush the entire dark world, is trembling after applying oatment to
22:20my skin.
22:22Then...
22:23I'll go now.
22:24Isabella?
22:26Yes?
22:26Mi dolce, Isabella.
22:28The pastries were sweet.
22:29Mi dolce.
22:30That's what lovers call each other.
22:32Does he even know what he just said?
22:34Mi dolce, Isabella.
22:36Why did I say that?
22:37Where did those words come from?
22:38In four hundred years, I've never used that term for anyone.
22:41It slipped out on its own.
22:43Just like every time I touch her, my fangs stir on their own.
22:46Beyond my control.
22:54I'll see you next time.
22:56Bye.
23:08Bye.
