Aurora's POV
Darkness filled the entire room as I lay on the bed, waiting for Alpha Bane to return. After our stroll, he decided to go to his Beta and complete the discussion that he was having with him because it was so serious and needed to be talked about.
At first, I tried to protest as I wanted him with me and not anyone else. Especially, after all, that Dylan's mother said to me, which I struggled to let go of, I needed someone by my side. I needed him by my side as he was the only one capable of making me calm down.
But I did understand that I couldn't have him at that point because he had other pressing matters at hand and they were, I dared to think, more important than keeping a lonely girl company.
I thought about my parents and my Pack at large. I was having a good time there for the first time in a very long time. The people in the Pack were starting to treat me so well. I knew it was because I was the Princess but yeah, it still felt very good.
My parents? They were so loving. My mom, most especially, always ensured that I wasn't alone and didn't feel as lonely as I currently felt in the room, with no one to talk to, just waiting for Alpha Bane to come to my room and save me.
Going out too didn't seem like the best thing to do. I could never tell when I was going to run into that hateful woman and with Alpha Bane not around, I didn't know what the outcome was going to be.
As I was still lost in my thoughts, I heard a knock on the door and I wondered if it was Alpha Bane. It seemed quite weird as he normally never knocked.
"You can come in," I said, eagerly waiting to see who it was.
"Oh. Anna…"
It was my maid. I had told her to come to my room at that time so she could help me run some errands. She was the reason why I didn't run mad earlier on as she came to keep me company. She loved to do that. I was glad she enjoyed my company as I did hers.
Earlier on, I decided to make some food for Alpha Bane and Ann was very helpful to me. She helped me cut the things I used to make the food and even offered to help me make the food but I insisted on doing it myself.
"I need you to do something for me, Anna. Please help me check on Alpha Bane. He's running late already. Find out why he's not here yet and get back to me, okay?"
"Okay, Princess."
She turned around and left the room while I tapped the bed with my fingers feeling so uneasy.
In just about four minutes, she was back. She knocked on the door and I came in at my signal. "Alpha Bane will soon be here, ma'am. He's already on his way to your room."
Before I could thank her, Alpha Bane walked past her into the room and I squealed. I couldn't contain the excitement within me and didn't know what came over me. I sprang up from the bed and ran to him, embracing him a big hug.
"You smell nice," I said to him, as the sweet scent of his perfume filled my nostrils.
"Thank you."
