When you've existed for over 3000 years, what's a few decades?

Aro had time for patience. He couldn't think of an occasion when his patience hadn't been rewarded. He'd never failed to convince- perhaps coerce would be a better word- a talented vampire to join the Guard. He was certain that the four vampires he desired from Carlisle's coven would eventually succumb to his will. He would simply bide his time, and the mind reader, the empath, the shield and the prescient one would be his.

He'd been rejected, but he'd wait for them, for as long as it took.
