Second Chance Mate...Maya(On Hold)

NEIL POV :

Seriously why we have this meeting ? I mean I understand that before starting any business together with any new company we need to know each other but running a whole presentation in a meeting room from both the sides depicting key people their team and allotted responsibilities... haah...it sucks.

More important question is what am I doing here ? Jacob is handling all Alpha responsibilities for the time being. I am on a forced break by Council but that doesn't stop my family involving me in all important issues either of home or of business. I don't remember how many times I said No for this meeting I just want to be alone for some time but at the end Drew convinced me to come here. She is very effectively involved in our business from last seven months. According to her I need to be more socialize to people when I am not doing any official duties because it will help in breaking my hard core rough personality shell.
Like who want to break it ? I made it all by myself and I enjoy blood and fights, they add some meaning to my meaningless life.

But at the same time can't raise my voice on Drew too. She is expecting and its her fourth month of pregnancy. We all are happy and excited for her and Jacob. This is going to be our fourth generation of the family. So its obvious I can't ignore her commands in this state. She and Jacob have gone through alot in past three years, they were trying for a baby from so long, Drew even went through three miscarriages. So we all are extra careful with her this time.

But this meeting sucks I am really getting bored and Will is also getting restless.

"Wait ! Can you please run the previous slide once again ?" Suddenly Drew voice filled the room.

What ! She was really paying attention to that presentation. I guess I am the only one getting bored here. But because of her demand my attention also moved towards the presentation on the screen and the young lady explaining it. She seemed to be in her young 20's and no doubt she is a human. Since all this professional work is to earn fund and raising for our species we need to mingle to humans also so that no one suspects us so its obvious to find humans working with us but they are not aware of our reality.

"Excuse Me Mam !" Young lady said politely.

"I said repeat the previous slide." Drew said not so politely.

I looked at Drew she seemed to be tensed her eyebrows furrowed together. Jacob instinctively came forward holding her shoulder to calm her down.

"But Mam nothing was so special in the last slide. Just some name and people fr -" Lady presenting the slide tried to explain but was cut off by Jacob.

"Do what is said to you."

The young lady gave a scared look and looked at a guy sitting near to her in black suit..I know him...what was his name...he is the MD of this company..Yaa..Max...Max Owen.

Max gave her a confirmation nod on which she quickly repeated the previous slide. Hmmm...interesting.

I looked at the slide nothing special. It contains the name of people responsible for Stage, Art and Behind the Stage Department. I looked at Drew and her eyes were glued to screen like she saw something unbelievable over there. I then looked at Jacob who looked equally confused as me. He looked at screen again and few seconds later his eyes twinkled as well. What...Am I the only one missing something ? I looked at screen again and this time read each line very carefully. I was going through it very casually when something caught my attention and I was sure my heartbeat stopped for a second. That was something which I was not at all expecting atleast not here like this.

On screen there was written in Italics second from the bottom
