"Now then, let's talk about how we're handling this situation," Landon said. "The branch no longer has a general manager. If anyone here thinks they're capable, you're welcome to step up."

The senior executives exchanged looks.

No one moved.

A heavy wave of alpha dominance surged from Landon. His pine-scented pheromones took on a tangible shape-an enormous wolf's head formed in the air, casting a shadow full of bared fangs across the ceiling.

It was the Nightshade Pack's signature response to cowardice-a primal rejection from an alpha.

"You're the top-level executives of this branch, and not one of you has the guts to step forward?" Landon had assumed this issue would take two days to handle, but it was looking far worse than expected.noveldrama

Nathaniel shared his frustration.

These people were hopeless.

"If you don't have what it takes, then you're just dead weight. Thorne Corp doesn't pay salaries to cowards. You can leave."

"I'd like to give it a try!" a young woman at the far end of the table stood up and spoke.

Tessa finally looked up, catching sight of her.

Now that took guts.

While the room full of corporate foxes kept their mouths shut, this girl had the nerve to step up. Interesting.

Landon reined in his alpha pressure slightly. She looked young, but at least she had the courage to speak.

"How would you handle the situation right now?" he asked calmly.

The other executives shot each other smirks of disdain. What could this girl possibly offer? Clearly just trying to score points with Alpha Landon.

"My name's Peter. May I use the projector?" she asked.

Since learning about the scandal, Peter had been preparing non-stop.

Now, she finally had her chance.

"Go ahead."

Tessa put down her phone-no longer interested in gaming. This girl had caught her attention.

Peter walked to the front, opened her laptop, and plugged in a USB drive.

In front of the entire board, she presented a clear, comprehensive analysis of

the current crisis, followed by

the solutions she had drafted.

By the time she finished, the room was silent,

Tessa's eyes gleamed with approval. This girl was good-really good. 291%

"Alright. As of now, you're the new general manager of this branch. Nathaniel will be staying here for a few days. If you run into any issues, you can go to him directly," Landon announced.

Her strategies still had a few rough edges, but the potential was obvious. He could trust her with the branch long-term.

"Alpha, you're asking me to stay?" Nathaniel turned toward him.

"I need you to hold the fort for now." Peter was still young-there would be things she couldn't handle on her own.

"Thank you, Landon." Peter's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Okay, so no one was going to ask how he felt about this?

Fine, fine. He was Landon's beta. This was part of the job.

After the meeting ended, most of the other executives were clearly upset-a young

girl was about to become their superior.

But with Alpha Landon still in the room, no one dared to object.

"I'll say this right now-if anyone has a problem, feel free to leave now. Don't go

behind the general manager's back causing trouble."

Frankly, most of these people needed to be replaced anyway.

No ability, no position. Thorne Corp didn't keep deadweight around.

The dozen or so execs could only bow their heads in silence, too afraid to say a word.
