Aurora's POV
It was finally time to leave the Blue Moon Pack as Alpha Bane was already much better. I recalled the last few days that I spent with him and a smile appeared on my face.
The last few days had been so good for me as I'd gotten the chance to feel important and see Alpha Bane for who he was and not from a distance. Our relationship got better and better with time and it made me quite happy.
I remembered the talk we had two nights before this morning and I got a bit angry at myself for speaking to him that way. I knew he didn't deserve to be talked to in that manner. Those words that I spoke to him were too harsh and I even barely gave him a chance to say anything.
Yet, I didn't do it to spite him or make him feel bad. I was only trying to create some space between us as I felt it was very necessary for us, especially because I knew that I was going to return to my Pack anyway, regardless of the outcome of the talk.
I knew better than to think my actions were going to be enough to create the distance that I wanted between us. It wasn't the first time that I tried. He had also tried that at the beginning of our relationship, yet, somehow, we always found ourselves back together.
I recalled all of the happy times that we had when I was treating and catering for him. I noticed just how it served to bring us together more as I got closer to him than ever before.
Although we got so close, Alpha Bane didn't try anything intimate with me. He did well to understand that there were times for everything and that period wasn't one for that. Such an understanding man he was.
As I folded one of my dresses, I wondered why I still didn't want to accept him as my mate. It looked so weird to me because he did everything just right all through my stay and I even thought that I'd jump on it as soon as he suggested it. But I didn't.
Just as I was still deep in my thoughts, as I packed up my clothes, I heard a knock on my door. "Princess," a voice called out from behind my door and I assumed it was one of the maids. "Your carriage is ready, ma'am."
"Okay."
I packed my clothes faster so I could meet up as I didn't want the driver of the carriage to wait for long. In a few minutes, I was done packing my things and I picked up my bag and left my room, albeit sadly, as I walked outside to the carriage which was already waiting for me.
As I got to it, I began to think about Alpha Bane again. I knew too well that he wasn't going to bid me farewell, even though I wanted it so badly as it'd have made me feel a bit better. He was currently in a meeting and that was also exactly why I chose that time to leave.
As much as I'd have loved the moment if he had bid me goodbye, I wasn't unaware that it would have also made it harder to leave too. It would have hurt both of us to see that we had to go our separate ways and so in that light, I thought it was best to have a silent goodbye; the kind only voiced in the mind.
I arranged my luggage properly in the carriage as quickly as I could but just as I got done with that, I heard some footsteps approaching.
