Basilisk (Dark Ominis Gaunt x OC gothic romance)

Chapter 80: Basilisk's Revenge

~~Ominis~~

After finally being let in by the absentee butler he guided Ariadne through the familiar hallways, bringing her quickly toward his study and closing them inside without a care for what the servants saw anymore. He had a plan, and it was finally time to implement it. His family had been in power for too long. It was time to bring down the dynasty.

He made sure the door was locked before he set up a silencing shield, turning toward Ariadne who was already breathing harder. "So excited, just from entering this room?" He chuckled in amusement, reaching toward her and setting his fingers against her chest, feeling her heart thrum quickly beneath his fingertips.

"I'm happy to be back." She whispered, a smile in her voice as she reached up to slide a hand through his hair lovingly.

"Mmmm, me too." He said, pushing her suddenly against one of the bookshelves so she gasped softly when he pinned her against the books, a few of them falling to the floor from the impact. "You remember what I said a few days ago?" He said, leaning down to bite gently at her neck just to tear one of those sweet moans from her.

"You said a lot of things, Ominis." She chuckled in amusement. "Which one?"

"About bringing down my family, sweet." Ominis reminded her with a smile against her delicate skin.

"Y-yes." She shivered against him, and his smile widened.

"Oh, does that excite you?" He growled lustily at the thought. "You like the thought of me taking down my father and brother?"

"I like it when you have that dark and dangerous tone. It's... mmmm." She trailed off, her hand running along the back of his neck teasingly.

"Dark and dangerous, am I?" He laughed softly. "Yet you know I'd never hurt you. You just like the thrill."

"I love the thrill." She said in a strained tone, pressing herself further against him eagerly.

He reached up to gently massage one of her breasts, letting out a long breath of lust against her neck when she let out a soft whimper of pleasure.

"So, my brilliant wife, will you help me come up with a plan?" He said huskily against her skin. "I want us to do this together... we'll take down those in power... steal their riches for our own, and destroy everything they hold dear."

She shivered at the thought and let out a soft breath of arousal. "Of course I'll help, but won't they know it's us?"

"That's half the point." Ominis chuckled, biting at her skin again with a soft growl. "Watch them writhe as their coffers drain. My father cares more about money than anything else. After what they did to you... I'm done being timid around them. They don't deserve my mercy."

"Oh fuck, I love it when you say things like that-" Ariadne said breathlessly.

He laughed warmly and leaned back enough to kiss her, pressing her against the bookshelf as he moaned into her mouth. It was a hard and sensual kiss, his hands running across her corset and down her hips, firsts bunching into the thick skirts of her dress.

"I know father's investments-" Ominis said roughly against her mouth as he shifted her over to the shelf next to the wall, setting her on it before bunching her skirts up to her hips. "We can make sure that business fails, invest in the competitor and take everything they have." He growled eagerly against her.

Ari giggled wildly against him, her breath coming out in a soft huff of desire. "It will serve them right for what they did to you, and what they did to us." She said softly against his ear in a way that made him shudder with a low groan.
