episode 5

Drakos Global Enterprises
The tall glass doors of Drakos Global Enterprises silently slid open at precisely 8:00 AM. A sharp gust of chilled air swept through the grand marble-floored lobby as Sebastian Drakos, the infamous CEO and mafia heir, stepped inside with the authority of a man who owned every inch of ground he walked on.
Dressed in a black tailored Armani suit with a silver pocket square and matching tiepin, his presence demanded silence—and obedience.
The murmur of morning greetings froze as he entered. Conversations died. Phones lowered. Even the elevators delayed their closing just in case he wanted to step in.

Please. He’d freeze your soul before he touched your hand
Unbothered by their whispering chaos, Sebastian walked straight to the private executive elevator. His long strides, echoing against the pristine floor, radiated dominance. The doors closed with a hiss behind him, cutting him off from the world like a king in his fortress.

Good morning, Mr. Drakos (nervously greeted him)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Gave a curt nod, then took his place at the head of the long glass table, eyes dark and unreadable**
Behind him stood Oliver, his composed and sharp-eyed P.A., and Mia, his efficient secretary dressed in a navy-blue formal pencil skirt and blazer, already flipping open her leather notebook.

Eyes remained locked on the screen, tracking every detail with unnerving precision. He didn’t move. Didn’t blink. Just listened**
Mia Evans (ml secretary)
Mia Evans (ml secretary)
(Stood with perfect posture beside him, jotting down notes with swift, crisp strokes. Occasionally, she leaned toward Oliver and whispered something—likely another flaw she spotted)
Then a girl strutted into the spotlight with exaggerated confidence, wearing a dangerously tight red dress with a plunging neckline and sky-high heels that clicked like threats against the tile. Her tone was overly sweet—fake sugar coated with poison.

I'm sure we could come to a mutual understanding—outside this boardroom, of course...
A long silence stretched

Sebastian drakos (ml)
And if you think spreading your legs is the only way to negotiate a deal, then you’ve entered the wrong boardroom.❄️
The room went dead silent

With that, Sebastian walked away, unbothered, godlike, leaving behind only fear and shattered egos.

In the cabin
Sebestian Stormed in, unbuttoning the top of his black dress shirt, and threw his Rolex on the glass table without a word. His jaw was still clenched, the memory of the “presentation” in the boardroom lingering like a bad taste.
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
(sitting calmly feet up on the coffee table, one arm thrown across the back of the couch, sipping whiskey at 11 in the morning like it was apple juice)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
mocking smile danced on his lips the moment Sebastian entered**
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Ahhh, the tyrant returns (drawled, raising his glass lazily)
Sebastian drakos (ml)

Didn’t even look at him as he poured himself a drink**
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)

Another investor down...What was it this time? Too many numbers? Not enough clothing (continued, eyes gleaming)
Sebastian drakos (ml)

Said nothing, just downed half his whiskey in one swallow**
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Entered next, silent as ever, dressed in all black. He tossed a thick file onto the table without flinching**
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
The Amsterdam shipment’s secured. Clean ❄️ (paused, looked at Sebastian’s face, then at Gabriel’s shit-eating grin)
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Let me guess…someone tried to flirt their way into a deal again (said dryly)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)

Gabriel volkov (ml bff)

Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Exhaled slowly, already regretting letting these two in his office**
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
She crossed the line...Came to a business meeting dressed for a strip club (muttered, voice clipped)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
And you… what? Gave her a gentle refusal...Offered her polite feedback and a gift basket (arched a brow, setting his glass down dramatically)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Finally turned, his glare sharp enough to kill**
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
I told her to take her desperate tactics and walk out before I made security drag her out ❄️
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Oh my god. You didn’t just reject the deal. You burned it, pissed on the ashes, and used them as paperweights (howled)
Dante casteollo (ml bff)

Just shook his head, lips twitching**
Dante casteollo (ml bff)

Gabriel volkov (ml bff)

Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
You know what they call you in the finance circuit now...The Iceman of Investments. Because every meeting ends with frostbite (leaned in, mischievous)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Walked past them, grabbed the tablet from his desk, and tossed it onto the table**
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
The presentation was sloppy. Numbers didn’t match, logic was weak, and they brought a dressed-up escort instead of a strategist. I’m not funding stupidity ❄️
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Agreed, It was a joke (said calmly, reviewing the tablet)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Stood up, stretching dramatically**
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Still, would it kill you to give someone a chance? Maybe flirt back once? Even Dante smiled last month. Smiled, Seb.
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
That was gas (muttered)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
No, it was a miracle, You know what you are, Sebastian? You're like a human firewall. Nobody gets in. No one survives.
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Good, I’m not here to babysit egos (drawning the rest of the drink)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
You need a vacation. A woman. A hobby. Maybe some therapy. Or a priest. (Circled him with amusement)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
You talk too much ❄️
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
I talk just enough to keep you from going full Dracula on the boardroom
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
It’s true. If Gabriel wasn’t here to make fun of you, your soul might rot out of sheer boredom (smirked, flipping a page in the file)
Phone buzz 📳
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Phone buzzed. He glanced at it—and rolled his eyes**
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
It’s my mom.... Again
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Let me guess. Another proposal from some mafia princess who thinks she can survive your frostbite if she brings lasagna and cleavage (leaned closer)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
She wants me to attend a gathering tonight, Apparently, important families are coming (muttered)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Grin widened like a wolf who smelled fun**
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Ohhh. A gathering? Suits, politics, desperate fathers trying to sell their daughters to the devil himself? Count me in
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
No one’s selling me anything If anyone touches me tonight, I’m leaving ❄️
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
Dante casteollo (ml bff)
If someone interests you tonight?
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Didn’t reply. Just stared out at the city skyline, his jaw sharp, his eyes unreadable**
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Maybe your queen will be there, oh icy king. (Leaned closer and whispered, mockingly dramatic)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
Sebastian drakos (ml)
I will break your fingers (turned slowly, voice like a storm warning)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Gabriel volkov (ml bff)
Ahhh. There’s the Sebastian we love 😙
