That is correct. Although Didyme was Aro's sister, he killed her in order for Marcus to stay with the Volturi. Marcus and Didyme were mates, and they had decided to leave the Volturi together. Aro had created Didyme, assuming that his sister would have a great talent like his own. Instead Didyme's power was to make people happy. Aro loved his sister...but he loved Marcus' power more...that's why Aro killed Didyme. It left Marcus apathetic and not caring about anything. Marcus remains with the Volturi...but he could care less whether he was a member or not.
