His captive bride (Roman Godfrey/Hemlock Grove fanfiction) book 2

Chapter 28

Peter and Destiny quickly packed everything that they needed to make it easier for them to sneak in the basement of the white tower.

"I hope that we don't get arrested for doing this. I can't afford to lose work; or did you forget that I'm still trying to get the money together to bail Lynda out of jail," Peter asked as he and Destiny made their way to the car.

"Stop worrying. You have Roman as a friend," Destiny bean only to be cut off by Peter.

"You mean slight enemy. Look Des, I love that you have so much confidence in my friendship with Roman, but you're forgetting that he is pissed off with me for 'abandoning' him. What makes you think that he will come to my aid if one of us is in trouble," Peter asked.

"He will have no choice but to come to your aid, that is if one of us manages to get to the basement and find out what it is, he's hiding down there. If Roman doesn't want his secret exposed to the world, he will do more than keep us both from going to prison. He will also help you bail Lynda out of jail as well," Destiny said.

"He already gave me an offer to help give me the money, without having to pay him back for it. But I turned him down," Peter confessed.

"What? Why," Destiny asked. "You could have gotten the bail money to bail Lynda out of jail. Then you could have come back to save Alyse from Roman. It all would have been in your favor."

"That's the thing Destiny. It would not have been in my favor. Had I accepted to take the bail money without paying it back, I would have had to leave Hemlock grove for good, as well as forget about Alyse," Peter said.

"Is Alyse really worth you passing up the opportunity to bail Lynda out of jail, without having to pay the money back? I mean it's not every day that the Godfreys do anything nice to help people out, without being paid back. You could bail Lynda out and get a new start. You could always find yourself a new woman to love you," Destiny said.

"You do realize if I do that, I won't be able to come back to Hemlock Grove at all. Besides, if I tell Lynda what I gave up to bail her out, she would be upset with me. She would go through the whole lecture that Rumancek's don't bow down, nor do they walk away from what they want. won't disappoint Lynda by going and taking the easy way to get her bail money," Peter said.

Destiny sighed. "You are stubborn. If you really want to go through with this, then let's go and do this."

"Do you have everything that you're going to need to break into the basement," Peter asked.

"Yes. I happen to know where Olivia Godfrey likes to lurk when she's hanging around town," Destiny said. "Before you go and start an argument with me, let me point out that one of us needs to keep Olivia distracted, while the other goes and sneaks into the white tower to find out what it is that is being kept in the basement."

"But what about Roman? Did you forget that he could be at the white tower right now," Peter pointed out.

"Roman will most likely be with Alyse, making sure she doesn't do anything to push herself. She's already lost his baby twice, remember? Roman will do anything to make sure that this unborn child is brought to full term. Peter, now may be our only chance to do this. Roman is already being distracted, all you have to do is let me distract Olivia and then we can possibly put an end to the nightmare that the Godfreys have created for all of Hemlock Grove," Destiny said.

"I don't like the idea of you going up against Olivia Godfrey. Why don't you leave me to handle her. We both know what she is capable of. I can handle what she has to throw at me. You go to the white tower. Just make sure you drop me off at the old Godfrey mansion, where I'm more than sure Olivia is right at this moment. I'll meet her at her house and you go sneak into the white tower," Peter said.

"Just be careful Peter. I don't want to be the one to call the prison and explain to Lynda why you have been murdered. She will chew my head off," Destiny said.

"Thank you for that reminder. I assure you that nothing bad will happen to me. Now be quick drop me off by the edge of the driveway and get the hell out of dodge before Olivia gets a chance to see the car. We don't want her getting suspicious," Peter said as he and Destiny made their way to their destination. Destiny pulled in front of the driveway leading to the mansion. "Thanks." Peter was quick to get out of the car and make his way to the mansion, as he heard the car drive off, reassuring him that Destiny had left, and that Olivia wouldn't catch onto their little plan to expose the Godfrey's once and for all.

Peter made his way to the front door getting ready to knock on the door, when it suddenly swung open revealing Olivia standing there looking at him annoyed. "Peter, what an unpleasant surprise. What are you doing on my property?"

"I only came here to talk civilly with you Olivia," Peter said.

"So, are you finally going to take Roman up on his deal about leaving Hemlock Grove and never coming back? Because if that is the case, then I'll make out the check for you, so that way you can bail your mother out of jail. Before you ask, Roman already told me everything that I need to know. I am sorry that your mom had been locked away. Jail is no place for a woman like your mother," Olivia said.

"I'm actually here to ask that you talk sense into Roman. Stop him from forcing an unwanted marriage on Alyse. It's plain as day that Alyse is miserable with Roman," Peter stated causing Olivia to stop in her tracks and glare at Peter.

"I'm sorry you want me to do what now," Olivia asked.

"Put a stop to the wedding," Peter said.

"Now, why would I go and do something as idiotic as that," Olivia asked while turning to look at Peter, crossing her arms over her chest. "Oh, I see why you want me to do that. It's because you're in love with Alyse. You want me to put an end to my son's happiness, so that way you could get the girl all for yourself. Very well then Peter. You finally convinced me to do something for the good of someone else. Let me just go and grab my keys to the truck, and we shall head over to Roman's house and speak to him about how wrong this situation is," Olivia said before turning around walking out of the room, leaving Peter standing there to wait for her return.

"Olivia, you do realize it shouldn't take too long to grab the keys to your truck, right? We don't have time to be wasting. We have to get to Roman's house to talk to him. We're only wasting time," Peter said while walking around the corner. Peter glanced around looking for any sign of Olivia, only to find the hallway empty. "Olivia, why don't we just call a cab then if you can't find the keys to your truck." Olivia quietly stepped behind Peter glaring at him, before raising the syringe and stabbing him in the neck with it; injecting Peter causing him to turn around shocked.

"What the hell was that," Peter asked before passing out.

"Sorry darling, but Roman is so close to having Alyse all to himself. I'm not going to have you jeopardize all of that. You had your chance with her, now you need to forget about her and move on with your life. Besides, nobody told you to fall in love with a girl who was never truly available to begin with," Olivia said before pulling out her phone. "Dr. Pryce, get the tower ready. We're going to have a wedding tonight."

"What do you mean? I thought you said it was next week," Dr. Pryce said.

"Don't test my patients, Johann. Get the tower ready. We need to have this wedding sooner than we originally planned. Just do it and don't ask questions if you want to keep your damn position," Olivia snapped before hanging up on Johann. Olivia turned to glare at Peter's body before walking over and picking him up. "You're coming along with me big boy. We have a wedding that we need to attend to."
