I'm afraid you can't do that using the standard functions that AuthComponent gives you. You have to create your own logic for that in the pages_controller's display action.

Something like (pseudo-code style)

var $allowedPages = array('one', 'two');

function display($page) {
    if(in_array($page, $allowedPages) || $this->User->loggedin) {
        $this->render($page);
    } else {
        $this->render('not_allowed');
    }
}
