Hailey's little friend was going to prove to be a nuisance, I had to act quickly. I had already got Hailey's things set up and I was sure she'd absolutely adore her new room. Now it was only a matter of catching her. I couldn't be a sitting duck with Sasha's suspicions rising.

A ping escapes my speakers and I roll my chair over to the computer. To my surprise Hailey had messaged me. Ignoring my feelings of dread and knowing she probably was going to end our communication making it even more difficult to take her, I read her message anyway.

"i'm sorry about sasha..."

I smiled at the words. My baby girl was going to be much easier to train than I expected.
