Alyse struggled to get out of Roman's grip, only to have Roman apply a little more pressure on her. "GET OFF ROMAN! YOU'RE HURTING ME!"

"Don't test my patients any more than you already have, wife. Why did you withdraw eight hundred dollars from the bank? Did you honestly think that I wouldn't have found out about it? Did you forget that the Godfrey name has power here in Hemlock Grove," Roman growled out trying not to lose his temper.

"I took the money out and gave it to Peter after I managed to convince him to take the money and leave Hemlock Grove. He told me about the deal that you made with him. I convinced him to go through with it," Alyse struggled to say.

Roman loosened his grip on Alyse's neck looking at her for a moment before allowing a smirk to take over. "Oh, my beautiful wife, how you managed to get Peter to take the eight hundred dollars is beyond me. I'm not going to question it though, because you managed to succeed in doing something that I couldn't do myself. Though you offered him far less than what I was offering. I had offered Peter two thousand dollars; but I like the amount you offered him. So, how did he take the news of you telling him to take the money and leave you behind? Wait, on second thought don't tell me. I want to enjoy the moment of celebration. Nothing too big or too fancy. Just a little something intimate with you my dear. I finally get you all to myself without any worries about Peter coming along and taking you away from me."

Alyse rolled her eyes at Roman. "Don't get too excited. The last time that happened, well you got me knocked up with your child. Oh, wait you did that because you're a possessive ass hole, who feared that I would walk out of your life and be with someone who actually made me happy."

"You watch your tone that you take with me wife. I may be over the moon happy right now, but that could change rather quickly," Roman warned.

"Oh, I'm terribly sorry; did I manage to stumble upon a sensitive subject? I'm only saying that you have been holding me against my will. You also forced me to go through with a marriage that was arranged sometime after our meeting, or may have been in the talks before I was born. How could I think that you were a bit off in the head? Oh wait, I can't forget that there is more to you than you want people to know; most had seen that a possessive jerk who wouldn't let me have a normal life, let alone date any other guy. No, they don't know that you're an abusive partner who forces himself on me; and has gotten me pregnant twice. I couldn't understand how you managed to manipulate my mind before. But now...now I completely understand. You used the upir gift on me. You knew about that ability that you had, while I was at the disadvantage. I knew nothing about what I was; what my father was. I was brought up thinking that I was like everyone else around me...a normal human being who had nothing special about her. You took advantage of that. I won't allow you to take advantage of that ability this time though. This time I'm ready to reject you if you so much as think about making a pass at me," Alyse said while pushing Roman away. Alyse started to walk away, only to stop and look over her shoulder at Roman. "Be happy that I sent Peter away. But also keep in mind that now that Peter is gone, it doesn't mean that you are free to do as you damn well please with me any time you want to. I won't allow you to overpower me that easily. I won't go down without a fight anymore Roman." Alyse was about to walk away again, but was stopped by Roman grabbing a hold of her arm tightly.

"Let's get one thing straight wife. You are going to accept that I am the man of the house. What I say goes. I want something from you, and you will give it to me. It's not my problem that you were brought up to think that you were human. But I have nothing to do with that. We are in the here and now. The way that you spoke to me, it was completely unacceptable. I could punish you for speaking to me that way. But I'm not as you make me out to be. I'm not a monster. I'm only a man who wants to love his wife and have that love reciprocated. I'm a man who is going to be a father. There is only one thing that I won't tolerate, and that is you mouthing off thinking that it's okay. I also won't have our unborn child grow up the way that Shelley and I did. Shelley and I weren't considered children to Olivia. We were possessions to her...more me than Shelley. Do you have any clue what it's like to have your mother parade you around, calling you her most beautiful child," Roman snapped back at Alyse.

Alyse glared at Roman. "Just because you had a poor childhood with a deranged mother, who only cared about your beauty does not excuse your behavior. Instead of acting like a mature adult, you are acting like a spoiled child. When you're ready to talk like a civilized adult, you know where to find me."'

"Woah what on earth is going on down here? Is there some kind of trouble in paradise with the newlyweds? Do the both of you need that honeymoon get away? Because I'll gladly watch Nadia while you guys go and get the much-needed honeymoon. It may do wonders for your marriage to get a little alone time; if you two are catching my drift," Miranda said drawing both Roman and Alyse's attention towards her.

"What the hell are you still doing here? I thought Roman was going to have a talk with you about leaving," Alyse asked before turning to look at Roman. "You never had the talk with her about getting out? This was something you said you were going to do after you had your chat with Destiny."

"As you can see, I haven't had the chance to do so yet. I came home and was already annoyed. I was going to wait until I was a little calmer to talk to Miranda in a civil manner," Roman replied.

"What talk was he supposed to have with me anyway," Miranda asked.

"He was supposed to tell you to get your things pack, because you have overstayed your welcome in the house," Alyse said while glaring at Roman.

"Oh, well he never said anything about me having to leave. If anything, I have reason to stay, since I help Roman care for his daughter Nadia," Miranda said trying to make it known that she was very much needed in the house.

"I see. Well, Roman as long as you keep your house whore here, I'll go back to my parents' house, and reside there until you get rid of this house whore. I won't stay here and listen to you and your house whore go at it. When you do finally get rid of her, then you can come and pay me a visit," Alyse said while shaking out of Roman's grip getting ready to make her way to the room, to pack a few things that she would need while she stayed at her family home.

"I don't think so. You are not going to leave this house. I won't let you out of my sight again. As for our house guest, she will leave in all good time. As of right now, she is useful to help with Nadia, that is until you give birth to our little bundle of joy," Roman said dragging Alyse up to the room again.

"No! No, not again! I won't have you chain me to the bed again! Don't do this Roman! This is cruel," Alyse screamed as Roman pulled her in the room, closing and locking the door behind himself. Roman shoved Alyse onto the bed, chaining Alyse to the bed post, preventing her from moving far from the bed. "You sick bastard! You will pay dearly for this!"

"Oh, you don't mean any of that dear. I think you're only saying all of this, because your hormones are all over the place. Why don't you let me be a good husband to you and make you feel good," Roman said while climbing on top of her. Roman kissed along Alyse's neck, while allowing his hands to roam all over her body. Alyse struggled against Roman, hoping to stop his advances.

"No! Get your filthy hands off of me! I won't sleep with you. I don't care if you're my husband. I won't give you any pleasure. I refuse! You have the house whore. Go stick your dick in her and leave me the hell alone," Alyse screamed causing Roman to stop what he was doing. Roman pulled away staring at his wife intensely.

"Oh, I don't think so my darling wife. You're going to play your role as my wife and give me everything that I want," Roman said.

"Over my dead body you, sick son of a bitch," Alyse screamed before Roman kissed her, muffling her screams.
