After completing the quest, Aelinore is removed from the game for good and all; you will only see her again (in your current playthrough) if she ends up as your love interest. So this means that you will have to start a new game (I mean new game +) and play through again to have a chance of getting her as LI.

Most 'important' NPCs that are popular LI candidates (those with their own questlines and post-dragon dialogues etc.) disappear after their final quest has been completed. Those NPCs are for example Quina, Aelinore, Mercedes, Madeline, Valmiro and Reynard; Others may stay in the game, like Julien or Selene. Quina and Madeleine return post-dragon and still have a chance of becoming your LI.

If you want to have Aelinore as your LI on your next playthrough, you should lower the affinity with other NPCs and complete Duchess in Distress right before completing Deny Salvation. If possible, get yourself an Arisen's Bond and give it to Aelinore (that way, you can actually check if she is your LI. If she is, you will get an extra cutscene after completing Deny Salvation including named item)

But yeah, for now, she is gone and will only appear in NG+^^
