Chapter 5

*Author's P.O.V*

"Now I need twenty-five of you to become my servants and twenty-five of you to become my knights. You all can choose which one you would like to be." Harry explains, bringing everyone inside of the castle.

Their eyes grow wide at the dead bodies and blood that is all around the castle. They don't stand there shock for long since some of them start to help get rid of the bodies. A few of them go to get some cleaning material to help get rid of the blood. The remaining of them clean up broken items and put things back where they belong. The new king is amazed with how fast they are willing to work. He walks to his throne and then takes a seat with his eyes looking down at his workers.

He starts to think about the revenge that he will get on those assassins. He wants every last one of them dead. His main idea is to have his knights have a gift so they can be on the same level as the assassins. He hopes that most of his knights will have the blood type for it. He then starts to think about where he can find someone to get him a bunch of needles to consume. He is deep in thought that he doesn't notice Niall and Zayn walking up to him. He jumps when he hears them clear their throat.

"So you want us to be a part of the servants and the knights?" Niall questions, hoping that the answer will be no.

"Of course not. I want you, Zayn, to be in charge of the knights, and I want you Niall to be in charge of the servants." Harry replies, looking up at them.

"Can I talk to you in private?" Zayn asks, and the young king nods his head before taking him to his bedroom.

He is curious about what his friend could possibly want to talk about. He closes his bedroom door and then locks it just in case someone tries to come in. He then sits on the bed with his hands resting in his lap. He can see his friend pacing back and forth as he rubs his hands together. Zayn looks over at his friend, trying to decide if this is the right time to bring up what happened between them in the bathroom earlier. He needs to get this off his chest so he can relax just a little. Just as he is about to ask the question, his friend cuts him off.

"I need you to find someone that owns a bunch of needles so I can make a strong army." Harry states, causing the raven hair male's eyes to grow wide.

Zayn takes this as a sign that he shouldn't bring up what happened right now. He nods his head and then leaves the room quickly. He knows that it is extremely late outside, but he needs to get out of the castle for a bit. He walks to the nearest pub and then takes a seat in the back. The people inside don't pay attention to him as his head suddenly drops on the table. The final gift is kicking into him. There is nothing much he can do since the gift requires him to black out. After sixty seconds, his head pops back up, and he gasps loudly.

He looks around him to see if anyone did anything to him, but he spots nothing out of the ordinary. The seconds that he was out, he had a quick vision of something. He figures that his final gift must be that he is able to see short glimpses of the future because this has never happened to him before. He gets up and goes to get a glass of water. Too much is happening to him, and he doesn't know how to handle it. He gulps down the water once it is given to him. A female a few feet away from him notice the distraught in his face.

She looks around to see if he is with anyone else. Once she concludes that he isn't, she makes her move. She gets up from her table and then proceeds to him. She taps him on his shoulder, causing him to flinch away from her touch. She ignores it, though, as she motions for him to follow her out the back door of the pub. He is hesitant, but he follows her anyway. They stand in the dark and quiet alley. Zayn makes sure that there is enough distance between them just in case she tries anything.

"I can tell that you just discovered a gift. I want to know what it is." She says, opening her jacket and reaching inside for something.

"I can see into the future but only for a few seconds." Zayn states, watching as the female pulls out three more needles from her jacket."I am not taking those."

"You don't have to. I just want to make money off of these. I haven't had a buyer in a while, and I have ten more at my home." She explains while holding them out to him."Since you seem like a pretty chill guy, I'll sell all thirteen to you for five hundred."

Zayn looks down at the needles with wide eyes. He knows that she is very generous because needles would usually sell for one hundred for each of them. He directs her to take him to her home so he can get all of them for his king. He definitely can't pay for any of this, and he knows his friend wouldn't mind paying for it since he is insanely rich. He takes this walk as a perfect opportunity to read her mind to make sure that he can trust her completely. The moment they arrive at her home, he comes to the conclusion that he can trust her.

The female doesn't allow him inside of her home. Instead, she goes in to retrieve the little box that contains all the needles. She comes back quickly and then hands him the box. It is her turn to follow him now. The moment they get back to the castle, it is squeaky, clean, and peaceful. The female looks around a bit surprise. She thought he was just a regular buy. She didn't think he would be a part of the royal family or else she would have made her price higher. Harry comes down the stairs in a nice, tight dress shirt and dress pants.

"Oh, those must be the needles I asked for." Harry says, clapping with a smile on his face.

Zayn is just so awe struck by his presence that he really isn't paying attention to what he is saying. He has seen his friend in so many different outfits, but every one of them seem to make him starstruck every time. His face goes with each one so perfectly, too. It still blows his mind that he is able to be his best friend and for the king to see him as his best friend too. He is so in his head that he doesn't notice his friend buying the needles and the female leaving the castle. He does notice when the green eye male's hands touch his slightly as he takes the box away from him.

"You can sleep early since everyone else is asleep. You have been through a lot today. Tomorrow you can start training the knights." Harry explains, nodding his head to the stairs.

"Alright. Goodnight, my king." Zayn states with a bow, causing the king to chuckle.

"It is Harry to you, but goodnight, Zayn." Harry replies with a wink, making his friend's heart flutter as he heads off to bed.
