Aspiring author, Brontë scholar, and unapologetic Heathcliff apologist Charli has just landed the opportunity of a lifetime: a summer at Keeper Fell, the manor rumored to have inspired "Wuthering Heights" itself. Not only is Charli participating in a Brontë themed writing fellowship, she's finally standing on the very ground that birthed her ultimate literary obsession and her favorite "book boyfriend" of all time. Heathcliff, she insists, was never a villain. He was a romantic. And, given the chance, she's certain she could've loved him properly. Determined to prove her thesis once and for all, Charli ventures onto the moors in search of inspiration and finds far more than she bargained for. Beneath the iconic barren tree from every edition of "Wuthering Heights," something awakens. Heathcliff is real, and he's very interested in Charli. Confronted with the living embodiment of her favorite brooding anti-hero, Charli must finally face the question she's been arguing for years: Is Heathcliff a great romantic hero... or a man so consumed by obsession that no one could ever fix him? AUTHOR'S NOTE Hello! This is my entry for the Wuthering Heights Reimagined competition. Wuthering Heights is my favorite book of all time, and I was so excited to see there would be a fun little contest involving the new movie. I am beyond stoked for this film, and I have been eagerly awaiting its arrival since it was announced. My favorite book? Check. My favorite filmmaker directing? Check. One of my favorite actors as Heathcliff? Check. I had so much fun writing this little short story, and I hope you will enjoy. And, shamelessly, I do hope to win!

One moment, I'm tracing my bleeding hand over vivid, newly unearthed frescoes of three striking men in a Late Republican villa, their features eerily reminiscent of the fresco I've studied since I was ten: Roman Senator Marcus Valerius, whose family vanished from history in 50 BC. The next, I'm sprawled across a marble floor in ancient Rome, pinned beneath the hard, commanding body of Marcus himself-flesh and blood, pulsing with raw power. And good grief, nothing captured the fire in his piercing stare or the way his touch ignites my traitorous body. But the history books lied. Marcus isn't the last Valerius. He has three brothers, each more dangerously captivating than the last-men I now know match those cryptic frescoes. Lucius, the battle-scarred warrior, whose heated grappling in the training yard leaves me breathless. Flavius, the silver-tongued diplomat, whose calculated caresses in shadowed corridors unravel my resolve. And Rufus, the freedman with knowing eyes, whose gentle touch conceals a hunger that sets my heart racing. Trapped in ancient Rome with no way home, I'm ensnared in a web of desire and deceit. The Valerii brothers want me-each in their own intoxicating way-and resistance feels like a losing battle. Worse, there is a fifth fresco, and it hides a chilling secret that threatens to upend everything I know. Am I a stranger in Rome, or the key to the Valerii family's mysterious erasure from history? With enemies closing in and time itself against me, I must choose: fight for a way back to my world or surrender to a fate that could rewrite the past.
