Here is the next chapter :) I've written up all the chapters for the story so its only a matter of checking them and uploading them :) I'll probably have them all uploaded by Sunday :D

Uriel's POV

'Is he dead?' Xav asks as I get back to my family.

'Yes.'

'What about mama?' Tazzy asks anxiously at Saff's sleeping body in my arms.

'Don't worry Taz, she's just asleep.'

'Does that mean she's dead?' Taz asks fearfully.

'No, she's just very tired. Let's get her home yeah?' I smile.

Everyone walks home although I call a taxi for me, Saff and the kids since none of us are too up for the idea of walking. I put my jacket around Saff to hide the blood encase the taxi driver got the wrong idea. Thankfully, he seems too caught up listening to the football on the radio to care.

We arrive home a long time before everyone else arrived. Victor opens the door looking wide-eyed and worried.

'Christ Uri! You look like you've been through hell! You could have called us or something! We were so worried.' He says and then noticed Saffron.

'Is she okay?'

'We're all fine, aren't we kids?' I smile. Jos nods in agreement and Tazzy yawns.

'Where's Xav?' Vic asks, staring at the blood on Saff's neck which seems to have stopped bleeding now.

'They're walking. We're all exhausted, I think I'm going to take this lot up to bed, could you wake us when Xav arrives?' I ask and Vic nods in reply.

Taz and Jos were too frightened to sleep in their own room so we all collapsed onto the bed in mine and Saff's room. Saffron lay on top of my chest and Taz and Jos curled up on either side of me. Both of them fell asleep almost as soon as their heads touched the pillow. I smile down at the three sleeping faces around me, feeling the happiest I've ever felt. There was no more threats, no more secrets: just me and my family, safe and sound. I too was extremely tired and drifted off into a happy and peaceful sleep, surrounded by the people I love.

I woke up by a sudden flash in the room and blearily opened my eyes to find my mum standing at the bottom of the bed, holding a camera.

'Awww mum.' I complain and lie my head back down on the pillow.

'You all looked adorable, it was only one photo.'

'Karla, sweetheart, let's give Uri some space.' Saul said smiling, shutting the door behind them.

'Uri? Are you awake?' Saff whispered.

'Yes, I think the others are home now, I'm going to get Xav to check to see if you're all okay.'

'What about you, are you hurt?'

'Not much.'

'Much?!'

'Don't worry about me, Saff, I'm fine.'

Xav came up a while later, grinning at the sight of us since neither of us wanted to move.

'I think mum's gonna frame that photo.' He laughed, sitting on the edge of the bed.

I groaned and Saff looked up at me with confusion. 'What photo?'

'Don't worry sweetheart.' I chuckle.

'Uncle Xav?' Tazzy asked sleepily.

'I'm doctor Xav at the moment. Which one of you wants to go first? Saff?' Xav asks.

Saff sat up on the bed and Xav took her hand, checking for any injuries.

'Other than a few cuts, you're all okay.' Xav said, healing the cut on her throat.

'Are you sure? It looked as though you hurt your arm back there?' I frown, remembering Saff cradling her arm against her chest.

'My uncle fixed the broken bones after he got bitten.' Saff explains. That was kind of nice, I guess. Well ignoring all the horrific things he did to her. It made me hate him just a teensy bit less than before.

After Xav healed Saff, he moved on to Tazzy and Jos and finally me, despite my objections. I knew that it gives Xav a massive headache from using his gift too much.

'Well I'll leave you guys to sleep then.' He said and I smile gratefully in return.

Morning came around fast and I was woken by the light seeping in through the curtains. Tazzy and Jos had disappeared somewhere although Saff was still fast asleep on my chest.

'Morning sweetheart.' I murmur gently as Saff slowly opens her eyes.

'Morning.' Saff said leaning in to kiss me lightly on the lips although I hold on to the back of her neck to deepen this kiss.

'Thanks for saving me, hero.' She smiles.

'You are very very welcome.'

'What's the time?'

I lean over to look at my watch. 'Wow, its 11 o'clock! Nearly lunch time!' I exclaim.

'Where's the kids?'

We both listen for a moment and could hear Tazzy chatting away to Victor about something.

'We should probably get out of bed.' I sigh

'Can't we just stay here forever?' She giggles kissing me lightly on my neck, making the offer extremely tempting.

'As much as I would like to, I think Taz and Jos would come up and drag us out of bed.' I chuckle.

'Ugh, I'm filthy!' Saff exclaims sitting up in bed. Most of her body was still covered in dried blood from yesterday.

'I'll tell you what. I'm going to run you a bath and you can spend as long as you like in there- just relax. I'll take Jos and Tazzy out for ice-cream in the meantime.'

'That sounds…really really nice.' She smiles. 'Can I see Taz and Jos first though?'

'Jos, Taz! Saff's awake!' I call out telepathically and it's not long before we hear footsteps pounding up the stairs. The door bursts open and Taz and Jos jump on the bed, tackling Saff in a cuddle.

'Good morning mama! You're all dirty!' Tazzy exclaims kissing Saff on the head.

'I know.' Saff scrunched up her nose. 'I'm going to go and get all washed. I think Uri's going to take you out for ice cream.'

'Really dad!' Tazzy exclaims, bouncing up and down.

'Yes really. Give me 10 minutes and I'll have the quickest shower ever and then we can get going.'

'Thanks dad.' Jos smiles.
