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

Chapter 14

The next morning Roman got up early so he could drop Miranda off at the auto shop. Roman walked out of the room to find Miranda standing there. "Are you ready to go?"

"Yeah. Sorry if I interrupted something," Miranda said.

"You didn't. My fiancé is still sound asleep," Roman said.

"Cool. Hey is it alright if I leave my things here? I'll grab them when we come back for my car," Miranda began to ramble.

Roman thought about what Alyse had said the previous night. "Leave your things here. Find out what's wrong with the car, what needs to be done, and how much it will cost and how long it will take to have it repaired. Until your car is fully fixed, you're welcome to stay here. But please don't go in my room. My fiancé needs all the rest she can get with the upcoming wedding."

"Alright, cool. Thanks again for letting me stay a bit. I'll do my part to pull my weight around here," Miranda said while walking out with Roman following behind her.

Roman drove Miranda to the auto shop, parking in front. "Do you need me to stay her and wait for you, or do you have a ride back to the house and your car?"

"I'll catch a ride with the tow truck driver. If I have to stay longer than expected, then I'll find a way to get a hold of you and let you know," Miranda said.

"The best way to get a hold of me is to have Anna or George call my office. Oh, and another thing. If you do end up needing to stay, remember the house rules. No matter what, don't go wandering in my bedroom, no matter how curious oyu are," Roman warned.

"What is it that you hide in your room, that you don't want anyone to find out about? Because if you sell drugs on the side, I don't care. It's your life. I have no say in what you do with it," Miranda said with a smile as she got out of the car closing the door, leaning down to talk to Roman through the open window.

"Just remember to stay out and all will be perfectly fine," Roman said before pulling away.

"Wow, so much for cracking even the tiniest smile. Though now he's got me a bit curious about what he is hiding in his bedroom that he doesn't want anyone knowing about," Miranda said to herself before making her way into the auto shop

"Greetings young lady. What can I do for you today," Mr. Ricky greeted.

"Hi. I was wondering if you could take a look at my car? It's broken down by the really nice-looking house. It looks modern on the outside," Miranda tried explaining.

Mr. Ricky only gave her a lost look. "Sweetheart, you obviously aren't from Hemlock Grove. I can tell that much already. I don't know how Mechanics do things from where you're from, but here we usually go to where the car was left. We go by an address that the car is close to or even a street name. If you can't provide me with that, I can't go out and pick up your car."

"Look, I don't know the address of the place where my car broke down. All I know is the house is really nice. I even stayed the night inside the house" Miranda said starting to lose her patients when a thought popped into her head. "The owner of the house. His name is Roman...Roman Godfrey. Does that ring a bell?"

"Roman Godfrey? What in the hell possessed you to go and stay with that boy? Don't you know who the hell Roman Godfrey is," Mr. Ricky asked.

"Should I know? I know he owns a company and is extremely rich. Why are you so afraid of Roman? He doesn't seem like he's that bad once you get to know him," Miranda defended.

"Roman Godfrey practically owns everything here in Hemlock Grove. He's due to marry a beautiful young girl, who had gone missing twice. He had to postpone the wedding once, because she had gone missing. But now that she's back, all everyone is talking about is when he plans on tying the knot with the young woman," Mr. Ricky explained.
