The wind howled against Wuthering Heights, mirroring Heathcliff’s harsh soul. He stood at the window, gazing at the moors, lost in thoughts of Catherine. The door opened. Not Catherine’s stride, but softer steps. He turned. It was Honey, glowing with quiet grace, tending the fire. She did not challenge him, only existed near him, unsettling his rigid control. He watched her, unsettled by her patience, feeling the cold within him lessen. He turned away, rejecting the warmth, yet his eyes drifted back. Beneath his ruin, something quiet stirred.
