“Where do you think you are going with those bags?” Xander interrogated as soon as he cornered her. “Of course, I’m leaving you!” She said, standing her ground, despite the fear in her eyes. “Why?” “You forgot to mention how dangerous you were.” Xander let out a deep throaty chuckle. “Sweetheart, you didn’t ask.” “I don’t care! I don’t want to be a part of this anymore!” She insisted. Xander shook his head. “Too late. We are already married.

Battle for Authority

"What does that mean, Aura?" Abigail raised a questioning brow with disappointment laced in her tone. "I know this is bad timing for this conversation, but what is Xander's reason for keeping your union a secret?"

Aurora sighed and took her hand instead while meeting her questioning gaze. "Abby, even I don't want to be publicly acknowledged as his wife now. I'm not in the mood. I just want to be left alone to mourn my father's tragic passing."

"I understand," Abigail sighed, slowly calming her nerves down as she hugged her. "I'm sorry for bringing that up."

Aurora shook her head, clearly not offended by that. But she felt a little bit guilty for keeping some things out of her best friend's ears. But there was no way she would ever mention Xander's secret identity to her without his permission.

Also, there was still about a month left until he could publicly acknowledge her, so what's the rush?
