“I guess I’m going to need a rabies shot,” Zachary simply replied.

Louis almost spat his wine out at that.

Just then, Raina came into the room. “Mr. Nacht, let me tend to your wound.”

“How is she?”

“She has calmed down, and there are no serious injuries,” Raina said as she cleaned Zachary’s wound. “Lupine put a pair of noise-canceling headphones on her, so there won’t be any worries of her waking up again to the thunder.”

“Exactly,” Louis chimed in. “They usually pay a lot of attention to the weather. If there were reports of a thunderstorm, they’d make sure to have Charlotte wear the headphones. But, for some reason, they forgot about it today.”

 

Hearing that, Zachary grew silent. Charlotte got attacked two years ago, and they destroyed her last antidote. She must have gone through hell and back after that episode. It was a miracle that she even survived it.

Her memory loss and having a relapse every time there’s a thunderstorm could also be the effects of that traumatic event.

 

“Your wound looks bad.” Raina frowned. “You’ll have to get a tetanus shot at the hospital. I’m afraid I haven’t brought any with me.”

“I’ll do it later.” Zachary didn’t care about it right now. “You should go stay by Charlotte.”
