Hector's POV
Immediately after hearing the screams and breaking glass, I released Maliyla from my embrace. "Stay here," I told her as I hurried out of the room, closed the door behind me, and rushed to the kitchen to ensure her safety.
My mind raced as I moved down the hall and into the kitchen, not knowing who or what I would find. The sight I saw, however, wasn't what I had expected. As I entered the kitchen, I saw Katia bent over the counter and Jonathan at work. Astonished, I stood frozen when Maliyla walked up to me seemingly out of nowhere.
"What's wrong?" Maliyla asked as she walked into the kitchen. "OH, MY GODDESS!" she exclaimed as she hurried out of the kitchen.
"What the hell?" Jonathan screamed.
"That's a good one," Jasper said, laughing from the depths of my mind.
