“Are you alright?” asked Zachary. He had walked over to help Charlotte up.

“Fifi had always been an obedient pet. It has never behaved this way before.” Charlotte frowned. She later complained, “You must’ve frightened it.”

“I saved you. It’s bad enough that you’re not thanking me, but now you’re even blaming me?” challenged Zachary with his brows raised. “Isn’t that a little too much?”

“It won’t have acted this way in the first place if it hadn’t been for you!” insisted Charlotte, who looked furious.

Zachary turned speechless. He examined the bird and quickly found the cause for its rampage.

“This eagle is the most aggressive type of eagle. It may look like it has been tamed, but it would revert to its aggressive self if it saw human blood.”

 

“You’re right. My brother mentioned that it can’t be exposed to human blood,” blurted Charlotte as revelation hits. “It must have been acting so wild because it injured you and some of your blood got onto it!”

“You would’ve gone blind if it wasn’t for me,” reminded Zachary as he examined her wrist. “Go treat your injury once you get back. Don’t let it get infected.”

 

With that, Zachary spun on his heels and left.

Charlotte tilted her head down and checked her own wrist. That was when she realized that Fifi had clawed her and left a few deep cuts on her.
