There's Someone Always Watching

Tessa's POV

i burst through the doors of the Council Meeting. All the Councilmen look startled, and then look at the Head Councilmen.

"Princess-"

"Save it," I glare at him. "I want them here. Zayn and Louis. Now." Objections started to rise from the room, but with one look at all of them, everyone shut their mouths.

"I trust that they will be here by the end of the week. Yes?" I turn to the head councilmen, smirking.

"We'll try, m'lady." I nod and leave the room.

I walk to the room Niall was being held in. it was like a private Infirmary. Opening the doors, I see if Niall is awake.

"Hey," he says, trying to sit up. I speed walk to him, laying him back down.

"Hey hey hey, you're supposed to relax. Doctors orders," I smile. He nods, resting back onto the pillow. I sit in a chair next to his bed.

"So I just...kinda yelled at the Council," I say. "They're going to have Louis and Zayn here by the end of the week." Niall's eyes pop out of his head.

"No, no that's not a good idea," he coughs. "A very bad idea." I slip my hand into his huge one, failing to squeeze it.

"It's okay, Niall." I smile. "I can handle it." He sits up, pulling his hand away, and putting it on his ribcage. The warmth of his hand gone.

"N-no. Louis and Zayn's clan is w-worse than you think. They're so much more than you think. They'll hurt you," he groaned in pain, grasping his side. "Please, I can't let you get hurt. I made a promise."

"Is that all you think of? The promise you made my father?" I knew I sounded hurt, but at this point all I was was desperate.

"No-"

"You know what," I stopped him, "I think I hear Liam calling me." I leave the room, making sure I politely said goodnight.
