His Deadly Wife (A Roman Godfrey/Hemlock Grove fanfic) book 3

Chapter 31

Alyse made her way out of the room, making her way to where she heard Ruxandria and Alexander speaking.

"I seriously don't have the time or the patients to wait for Roman to show up and give us what we want. If he doesn't show up soon, I say we kill the bitch and find another way to get what we want from him," Ruxandria suggested.

"We still have to deal with Roman's whore of a mother. Did you forget all about her," Alexander asked.

"We could always have Roman's wife kill Roman's mother before we kill her. It works out for everyone," Ruxandria explained.

"Just stick to the plan we have going now," Alexander said.

"Well, I'll leave you to stand here and wait for Roman to make his grand appearance. I'm going to check on the idiots. They should have been back from dropping the bitch off by now," Ruxandria said.

"You do that. Maybe I will finally get some damn peace and quiet, so I can think and get shit done before Roman arrives," Alexander said before Ruxandria walked away from him while rolling her eyes at him.

"Such an ungrateful bastard he is," Ruxandria mumbled to herself while walking away. Ruxandria rounded the corner; shocked at the sight standing before her. Standing in front of her was Alyse tilting her head at Ruxandria. "How the hell is this possible? You were knocked unconscious. There is no way that you're up and roaming around right now."

"That's funny, because I feel wide awake. In fact, I'm feeling a bit...hungry," Alyse said with a predatory look on her face.

"Well, hang tight and I'll see if I can get you a hamburger or a steak or something," Ruxandria said.

"No. I like what I see in front of me. Besides, it wouldn't be so much of a burden on you, since my meal is standing directly in front of me," Alyse said.

"Excuse me? I'm not anybody's mea- ahhhhhhh! Alexan-" Ruxandria began to scream, only to be cut off by Alyse slapping a hand over Ruxandria's mouth while she was draining the blood from her. Alyse didn't stop until she felt Ruxandria's body go completely still. Alyse then dropped the body to the floor before speaking up.

"No use in trying to hide Olivia. I'm very much aware that you hired those two idiots to take me away from my home. But you're an even bigger idiot for thinking that you can trust them to take on such a task. Both were playing you all along," Alyse said not bothering to turn and face Olivia as she came out of hiding.

"It seems I have completely underestimated you," Olivia said.

"You planned to have my son and I kidnapped. What were you planning on doing with us? Oh wait, I know what you were planning for me. You were going to kill me. But then that leaves my son. If you were planning on killing him too, then you chose the wrong child. Because anyone who poses as a threat to either of my children is dead," Alyse warned while turning to glare at Olivia. "Did you honestly believe that I would let you take me down that easily, Olivia? Look at you, growing weaker by the damn day. Can't afford your special medicine from the gypsy woman who has been helping you keep this sickness at bay?"

"I would be able to afford it, had you not interfered with my son and I speaking about how much it would be reasonable for me to receive in an allowance," Olivia said back.

"Olivia, you always hated me, the moment I stepped into my full power. The moment that I was reborn as a full upir, you began to hate me with everything in you. You hate that you no longer have control over your son, or the company. I bet you lost your fuck buddy as well. Oh, wait you have. He was a fun toy for me, well at least before I grew bored of him and ripped his insides out. But I was never one who was entertained by a man who cheated on his pregnant wife, with his dead brother's widow. God that sounds messy. But look at who I'm talking about. I'm talking about the queen of living a messy life. You made your husband kill himself, because your precious affair was on the verge of being revealed, wasn't it? You didn't want to risk your lover ending it all, but you couldn't keep it secret, knowing your love child was going to have it all, had your husband killed himself. Isn't that why you kept Roman's real father a secret from him," Alyse taunted. "That and when your daughter Shelley died, you never truly gave a shit about her did you? Seeing as she was the only thing linking you to the man you didn't give two shits about. Oh, don't look so shocked Olivia. I heard about every one of your dirty little secrets, Olivia. I may have spared your lover from having to deal with the shame and the guilt of having to see the look of hurt in his wife's face, but that doesn't mean that you are safe; nor will you receive the same mercy he received."
