You could just delete the game folders from your second hard drive. If you run CCleaner after this, it will also get rid of the registry keys for the games.

Which games are they? I assume it's the Programs and features list you're looking at?

Did you install the games to the default location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games? Do the game folder show up in your installation location (you can double check your installation location in Application Settings - Advanced)?
