The final goodbye was as horrible as Lily thought it would be. Knowing Carlisle would be traveling with her helped somewhat, but she was still heartbroken to be leaving the rest of her family. She stared out the window beside her while they drove to the airport and Carlisle reached over to clasp her hand in his. She squeezed his hand in thanks and kept hold of it until they reached the plane.

Their luggage and her belongings had all traveled ahead of them and were already loaded on the plane. The only thing she'd kept with her was the backpack that had once belonged to John. It held the things she didn't trust to anyone else. Even her sword was stashed in the cargohold. Mainly because she was fairly certain they weren't going to allow her to appear before her mates armed.

She took a seat near the window and dropped her bag into the seat across from her. Carlisle sat beside her. The guard sat further away giving them the semblance of privacy. Growing up with vampires, Lily was used to having none so it didn't faze her much. When Lily wasn't sleeping, her and Carlisle talked more about Volterra or played hangman and cards. Sometimes she just stared out the window and contemplated her future. She'd brought a book but after reading the same page three times and still not processing it, she gave up.

The closer they were to their destination, the antsier Liliana got. When they were about forty minutes out, Jane approached. "Excuse me, Mistress."

Lily gave her a tight smile. She really hated being called Mistress but had been unable to get them to call her anything else. "Yes, Jane?"

"We will be landing soon should you wish to don more suitable attire," the girl suggested.

Liliana blinked at her a couple of times before smiling. "Thank you, Jane. That is most kind of you." Lily pulled a sheer cardigan the same color of green as her off the shoulder crop top from her bag. She slipped it on. "Much better."

Jane stared at her for a long moment without saying anything.

Lily leaned toward Carlisle. "I think I broke her."

"Is there not something else you would rather wear? We can arrange for you to change at the airport if your clothes are below." Jane's voice was as calm as ever but it was obvious she was trying not to say something biting to her new queen.

Contrary to what Jane may have thought, Liliana had taken great care with her appearance. She had dressed in a pair of lightweight khaki cargo pants and her off the shoulder olive green crop top. Her brown hiking boots were comfortable and went well so she'd worn those. Alice had done her hair in a messy updo and used one of her hair scarves as a wide hair band with some strands of hair pulled through to frame her face. She'd also done a light makeup. Lily had finished everything off with multiple bracelets and rings along with a metal choker and her necklace with the Cullen crest. She even had her nose ring in. She was quite pleased with the look if she were honest. And most importantly, she felt confident.
