I stop pacing back and forth. I turn and stare at Iris. So beautiful and all mine... Thump, thump, thump. All I hear is her heart beat and the blood flowing through her veins. My fangs extend and my gums start to burn. Hunger fills me. She looks up at me and it makes me go even crazier. She looks like an innocent angel. Ready to be taken... By me. "Just one bite" I mutter so low that I'm sure she couldn't hear. ****

He didn't care about anything, he was free and careless. That's what drew me in. There was a certain thrill being with Aaron. Maybe because i knew he was bad Or maybe because I knew it was wrong to be with him. But he just made everything so exciting . I took a risk, Read to see where it got me.

Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, leaves Wuthering Heights, only to return years later as a wealthy and polished man. He proceeds to exact a terrible revenge for his former miseries. The action of the story is chaotic and unremittingly violent, but the accomplished handling of a complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the lonely moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature.
