When such people who are conditioned to, or prefer out of their own will, to live in denial of their weakness, are faced with an external enemy who has no weakness, they can experience a strange phenomena, given the popular name "the Stockholm syndrome". It's a bit of a flawed term because the situation which coined it, was just that hostages sided with the robbers out of fear for being harmed if the police stormed the bank. But it refers to someone siding with their oppressor either way.

If you face such beings, physical or otherwise, you can make them side with you if you are menacing enough. If there is no way for them to harm you, they will not be able to project their weakness onto you, and then their weakness will be exposed as it falls back onto themselves. In this situation, they can only start protecting you and making sure that no one from their group attacks you, because doing so will risk exposing the collective weakness among all of them.

This is why glowie organizations protect their mafia overlords despite them breaking all laws. They cannot touch them, and risk having their weakness exposed. In this case, it may be that they cannot find employment outside of the armed forces or deep inside unproductive organizations, so they need to stay there no matter what, even if it means hiding the real criminals.

The same will happen with vampires or any person who cannot be touched, they will all have to, sooner or later, start defending that person, hiding them from public view, because they will through just existing expose the weaknesses of weak individuals.

There is a scene in The Originals where this point is made, Klaus comes to New Orleans where vampires have created laws for themselves. So Klaus breaks the law in a way that would give a death sentence. But he is immortal, so what are they then going to do? He's rendered the law obsolete through a single act. The only solution is then to hide this fact, let him do whatever, cover his tracks and let no one know that a person exists who can break the law.
