"RIHANNA SWAN." THEY BOTH WHISPER after the two elders had told them, they had been staring at her for god knows how long. Harry decided to bring Sam into the kitchen to talk with the two imprinted couple.

Sam and Emily both stare at each other with knowing looks before looking back at the younger girl, who was getting tired rubbing her eyes. She was still playing the board game with the two Clearwater siblings, but with a pacifier in her mouth. Both of them were confused by it, and looked at the two elders in question.

"Rihanna Swan is an age-regressor." Harry said looking at the alpha and the imprint before turning back to the three in the living room.

"What's an age-regressor?" Emily asked a little confused at what he meant.

"It's a lifestyle for her. She can act like a baby or a toddler, she's never really had the childhood she wanted. It was always her younger sister who got the attention and everything she wanted; while Rihanna got left behind by both Charlie and Renee. If you ever want to know what it is you have to search up age regression." Sue explains, staring sadly towards the girl then back to Emily.

"How old is she? Her real age I mean." Sam asks, staring at the blue eyed girl who rolled the dice.

"She's nineteen years old." Sue said smiling as the young girl shouted that she got six, and began moving her little character; moving to take another roll.

"Leah and Seth have taken a liking to her lifestyle, they even gave her some rules. And if she's out of line they put her in the corner." Harry said chuckling.

"Ah yes, she's been there for Leah while Leah has been there for her. She comes over here if she wants to get away from her house sometimes." Sue said smiling.

"I understand that Charlie is your friend Harry, but they way he treats her, he favours one while the other gets left in the dark. Her sister just moved here and you can see it on that little girls face that she's going to break. Leah told me this morning that Rihanna had told her that the little sister started on her yesterday." Sue adds in feeling bad for the girl.

"I know Sue, I know." He sighed sadly.

"With all due respect, but why doesn't she just move out?" Sam asks, growling slightly.

"Because she can't deal with working and accidentally slipping into regression. But she wants to move out, the but can't because who would take care of her little needs? I told her she could live here but she declined saying she wouldn't want to be a burden." Sue sighed, putting her cup up to her mouth.

"But Leah and Seth are always there for her, and I'm thankful that I raised such good kids." She finished, putting her cup back down.

Emily stared at the young girl sadly, watching how she reacts, and how she plays out. She could see when the young girl doesn't get her way she glares and pouts or if she wins she cheers.

Sam on the other hand watched how she acted like a child, watched as her pacifier bobbed in and out of her mouth, watching as her big periwinkle eyes sparkled, and when she bounced up and down on the floor when she got a good number after she rolled.

"She's really something else, huh Sam?" Emily said chuckling.

Sam smiles at her, "yeah our other half is truly special."

Sue and Harry smiled, "I know you guys will take good care of her." Sue replied.

"We will."

━━━❃━━━

Sam discussed things with both Harry and Sue while Emily watched the little girl pick out another game after Seth won. She watched as her blue eyes kept connecting with her brown ones, and she would look away embarrassed.

Emily smiled, in a motherly way every time the young girl would glance at her.

She smiled at Sam as he and Harry left again. It was just the two women who were catching up on things and talking about Rihanna.

Talking about Rihanna she was beginning to get thirsty, she walked up to the kitchen where two woman were and stood at the entrance awkwardly.

"Um...Sue c-could I get drink please, i-in my sippycup?" She asks, trying to avoid meeting Emily's eyes.

"Of course sweetheart, by the way this is Emily."
