Amelia reached into her medical bag and produced a small, crystal vial. Insid swirled, infused with the essence of rare Moonlight herbs she had personally uncorked it, and a faint, soothing herbal scent filled the quiet room.

Carefully, she poured the shimmering oil onto Theodore’s legs. The skin there was pale and unresponsive, the muscles atrophied from years of paralysis.
“This is a new method I’m trying,” Amelia explained, her voice professional and soft. “I am using the snakes for assisted Deep Pressure Therapy.”
Theodore watched her hands, his expression unreadable.
“The principle is simple,” she continued, massaging the oil lightly into his skin. “Their muscular constriction creates a deep, uniform pressure. Combined with the friction of their scales against your skin, it generates a unique biological heat. This heat helps the medicinal components penetrate the atrophied muscles and damaged nerves much faster than traditional massage.”
She gestured to the two reptiles waiting obediently on the floor.
“Plus, these little guys understand my commands perfectly. It is much more effective than hiring a strange physical therapist who doesn’t know your body.”
Amelia pointed to the vibrant green snake. “This is Green.”
Then she pointed to the white one. “And this is White.”
Theodore looked down. The two cold–blooded creatures slithered up his calves, their tongues flicking out to taste the air.
Inside Theodore, his wolf Logan paced back and forth anxiously. The beast was wary of having potential threats so close to his host’s vulnerable spots, but he sensed no malice‘

only curiosity.
Theodore suppressed the instinctive urge to recoil. He swallowed his discomfort.
“I see,” he managed to say, his voice tight.
Amelia watched the snakes coil into position around his lower legs.
“How does it feel?” she asked.
Theodore averted his gaze, looking at the wall instead of the writhing scales on his skin.

“I feel a warm constriction,” he admitted, trying to keep his voice steady. “And a slight, rhythmic
tingling.
“That means it’s working,” Amelia nodded with satisfaction. “We need to do this for thirty minutes
every day.”
“I accept,” Theodore agreed immediately.
Green, who had been lazily looping around Theodore’s ankle, paused in his

its.
The green snake stiffened. Reluctantly, he began to squeeze harder, wrapping his body tightly
around Theodore’s shin.
Theodore closed his eyes. He focused on his goal. As long as he could heal these legs, as long as he could regain the power to protect his mate, he would endure any bizarre therapy.

“I will rest in the guest room for half an hour,” Amelia said, wiping her hands. “Let them work.”
She stood up and left the room, closing the door softly behind her.
As soon as the door clicked shut, Green immediately lifted his triangular head. He stared directly at Theodore with unblinking, vertical pupils.
*Unbelievable,* the snake seemed to complain internally. *Following Amelia used to be easy. I just had to Look Mysterious or act as a mascot to scare people. Now I’m reduced to a masseur doing manual labor for this Alpha? I’m going to die of exhaustion.*
Theodore sensed the snake’s intense scrutiny. He knew Amelia’s pets were far from ordinary
animals.
“Hello,” Theodore said, breaking the silence. He offered a polite, gentle smile to the reptile to ease the tension. “I am Theodore.”
Green froze.
The snake immediately lowered his proud head, burying his snout against his own coils. He didn’t dare to meet the man’s gaze again.
It wasn’t that he was charmed by the smile. It was instinct.
As a beast, Green could feel what humans couldn’t. Theodore radiated a terrifying, invisible pressure. It was the Dominant Aura of a king, a top–tier Alpha that demanded absolute submission from all lesser creatures.

Green shivered and went back to work with renewed vigor, terrified of offending the powerful
being.
An hour passed.
Amelia returned to the room. Green looked utterly exhausted, draped like a
Theodore’s foot, while White was wandering aimlessly near the door.

“I’m heading to Starlight Entertainment now,” she said.
Theodore looked up from his computer screen.
“What would you like for lunch tomorrow?” he asked. “Italian cuisine or the Steakhouse?”
“I’m not picky,” Amelia replied. “You choose.”
With a nod of agreement, Amelia turned and left the villa.
(Author’s POV)
Amelia arrived at the headquarters of Starlight Entertainment. She was about to push open the glass doors when voices from the main workspace stopped her.
The employees were huddled together, their discussions loud and agitated.
“Did you seek the email from Gale Entertainment?” one employee asked.
“I did,” another replied excitedly. “They are offering double our current salary to jump ship.”
“It’s obviously a raid,” a senior editor whispered. “The new boss, Amelia, must have offended the Drake family. Gale Entertainment is owned by the Yorks, and they are practically family with the Drakes. They are using Gale to hollow out Starlight completely.”
“Is it a trap though?” a cautious voice asked. “What if it’s just a capitalist scheme? We go there, they use us to kill Starlight, and then kick us out?”
“Who cares?” a man scoffed. “Starlight is going bankrupt anyway. Staying here take the money and run.”
“Exactly,” another woman added scathingly. “Amelia Stone talks about a Grand Vision, but it’s just Empty Promises. I don’t believe her.”
Just then, Anya Reed, the secretary, looked up from her desk near the entrance. Her eyes widened as she spotted Amelia standing by the door.
“Ms. Stone…” Anya breathed.

The room went instantly silent. The employees froze, looking like deer caught in headlights. The air
felt heavy and suffocating.
But then, realizing they were planning to leave anyway, their expressions hardened. They stopped
avoiding her gaze.
Amelia smiled calmly.
“I heard everything,” she said, pushing the door open and walking into the
Her gaze swept over the crowd, cool and composed.
“Anyone who wants to resign can hand their application to Anya right now,” Amelia announced. “I won’t stop you.”
Without waiting for a response, she walked straight past them and entered her office.

The atmosphere outside the CEO’s office remained heavy and tense.
A staff member from the Public Relations department walked over to Anya’s desk.
“Anya,” she whispered. “Did you get the email from Gale too?”
Anya nodded, her expression serious. “I did.”
“So… are you going to go?”
“No,” Anya said firmly, loud enough for others nearby to hear. “And you should do as Ms. Stone said. If you want to go, go now.”
“Why are you staying?” the colleague asked, bewildered. “Everyone is leaving.”
“Because Gale Entertainment’s offer is a Scorched Earth Policy,” Anya said sharply. “It is a
malicious business tactic, not a real opportunity. It’s unreliable.”
Anya adjusted her glasses, looking at the closed office door with respect.
“I did my research on Amelia Stone,” she said. “I’ve read about how she handles crises. Her history
of fighting back against impossible odds… it makes me feel Empowered.”
Anya picked up a stack of files, her decision made. I’m betting my future on her.”

Inside the office, Amelia sat behind her large mahogany desk. She opened her laptop and began to investigate Gale Entertainment.
