Here is the next chapter :) I hope you enjoy, please leave a review to tell me what you think :)

Saffron's POV

Time flew fast and before we knew it, it was half past 6. I couldn't keep still from nerves and fear and excitement for seeing my children. I kept pacing up and down the room.

'Saffron sweetie, you're making me on edge.' Uriel said from the couch.

'Sorry. I can't sit still.' I reply and continue pacing.

Uriel sighed 'I'm still not happy about this.'

'Uriel everything will be okay.'

'Saffron he wants you. I don't think he's going to let you and your kids go.'

'But he might let my kids go at least.'

'That's not the point Saff! I want to have you and the kids!'

I go and sit on his lap and wrap my arms around his neck.

'I'm sorry Uri, let's just go and see how it plays out.'

'I don't know what I would do if you got hurt…if any of you got hurt.' He says, nuzzling into my neck.

'Saff, Uri, are you guys ready?' Dolly asks coming in the room.

'You're not coming are you Doll?' Uri frowns slightly.

'Yup.'

'No, no it's too dangerous.' Uri replied 'Will!'

'Yes?' Will replied, coming into the room.

'Tell Dolly that it's too dangerous for her to come.'

'I can make my own mind up.' Dolly said.

'I've tried telling her Uri, she won't listen.'

'Please stay here Dolly. I really couldn't stand it if you got hurt.' I say.

'I know the risks but I want to help. Uriel helped Will and me and we just want to return the favour.'

'COME ON GUYS! LET'S GO KICK ASS!' Xav yelled, coming down the stairs.

We arrived at the restaurant shortly after. It was quite busy with people since it was Sunday evening. Victor and Rogue decided to stay at home with the baby, but other than that, everyone else was here.

'Be safe.' Uriel whispered to me before we entered.

I could see Tazzy and Jos right away. They were sitting at the table with my uncle and another man. The other man, I realised, was the man that followed me and Uriel in the town. Seeing my uncle brought back horrible memories and my brain was telling me to get as far away as possible but I carried on walking towards the table to save my kids.

'Mama!' Tazzy cried once I sat down.

'Saffron darling, long time no see. I must say, you look stunning.' I don't reply, I sit down in between Tazzy and Jos and take hold of both of their hands.

'Well, aren't you going to give me a kiss?' My uncle said smiling at me.

I stare at the floor and try to ignore him.

'Saffron, I would do as I say if I were you.' He warns me and then leans over and puts his hand under my chin, tilting my head so he can kiss me. I break off the kiss as soon as his nails stopped digging into my neck. I could feel Uriel's dishearten gaze on me and I look away, ashamed at my weakness.

'Uncle. I am not here to play games. I want you to let me and the children go.' I say quietly.

'Oh the children are free to go. I have no interest in them. I just want you Saffron.'

'You're deluded uncle, you don't want me.' I try and use my gift on him but his shields are up so strong that my gift cannot penetrate.

'Yes I do. I suggest that you come with me willingly and then your kids will be free. If not, someone will die.' He says casually. Tazzy gasps and starts crying.

'Uncle I cannot leave my children.'

'That handsome Uriel, you're soulfinder, he will care for them. I will care for you.'

I think about this for a moment, weighing up the possibilities. If I do as he says then no one will get hurt and Uriel will look after the children but I might never see Uriel and my children again. If I go against what he says then I will be with Uriel but someone might get hurt. I don't think I could live without Uriel. He is like my oxygen. I need him.

'Come on Kids, we're leaving.' I say, standing up.

Uncle grabs my wrist. 'Saffron darling, I wouldn't if I we're you. This is my friend Mazzi.' He said gesturing to the man who followed me and Uriel. 'Mazzi's gift is to control other's powers. A very useful gift, especially since we are at such close proximity with the Benedicts.' Uncle smiles evilly.

I realise what he is trying to say. There is a reason why uncle didn't mention me going alone on the note. He wanted the Benedicts to come so Mazzi could use their gifts against them.

'Get out of here.' I send to the Benedicts quickly.

'It's a shame Victor Benedict isn't here tonight. His compulsion was especially useful in getting Taz and Jos in the car. Yves Benedict, now he has an interesting gift. Rather…explosive, wouldn't you agree Mazzi?'

Mazzi nodded as though uncle had given him some sort of signal. Suddenly, Mazzi copied Yves's gift and a fire broke free in the kitchen. Hungry orange and yellow flames spread quickly around the restaurant, swallowing everything in its path. Panic hit the restaurant; people screamed and fled to the door, shoving their way out of the restaurant. The Benedicts ran too. I could see Yves trying to hold back the flames but it had already gotten out of control.

Uncle grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the Restaurant through the back door. It was all a blur. I couldn't see or hear anything.

'Tazzy! Josiah!' I called although my shouts were lost in the flames. I choked on the black smoke which filled my lungs.

Uncle pulled be outside and I gasped to breath in the clean air.

'We have to go back! Tazzy and Jos are still in there!' I yell at my uncle.

'No!' He shouts, hitting me around the face.

'I'm leaving. This is getting too out of hand.' Mazzi said and proceeded to run off.

'Traitor! Plotting against me! Everyone plots against me!' My uncle screamed after him and then dragged me off further away from the restaurant.

'Uri! Taz and Jos! There still in there! Help please!' I beg Uri telepathically.

'Why do you have to go any ruin everything Saffron!' My uncle yells once we reach a quiet, secluded part of the area. It looks like a rubbish tip with broken planks or wood and empty cans littering the floor.

'Uncle let me go please! I need to get the children out.' I beg, crying.

'No no, you planned for this! You and Mazzi, always plotting against me! Devil child.' He screamed, working himself up so his anger increased. He choked me, cutting off my windpipe so I couldn't scream.

'Uri please!' I beg one more time before bracing myself for what was to come next.
