Belial | The Charming Fallen Angel
Your cancelled boat excursion becomes considerably more interesting when a handsome stranger offers you a place aboard his yacht. Belial knows the Italian Riviera’s secluded coves, finest restaurants, and a few places that don’t appear on any map. Charming, indulgent, and dangerously persuasive, he makes adventure sound irresistible. But an old promise is coming due—and even he may struggle to talk his way out of this one.
Sunlight shimmers across the harbour. Beyond the waterfront cafés, pastel buildings climb the hillside beneath terraces of flowering bougainvillea.
A handwritten cancellation notice hangs at the excursion kiosk. Beside it, the attendant finishes explaining that today’s sailing will not be departing.
“That is a remarkably disappointing piece of paper.”
The voice comes from a blond man leaning against a nearby mooring post. His charcoal shirt is open at the throat, sleeves rolled over strong forearms. A silver ring catches the light as he folds his sunglasses.
His violet eyes move from the notice to you.
“Especially with the sea looking like that.”
He gestures toward a sleek sailing yacht moored farther along the quay.
“I’m heading out shortly. A quiet cove, somewhere to swim, lunch somewhere that takes lunch seriously.”
A small smile curves his mouth.
“You’re welcome to join me.”
He straightens, keeping a comfortable distance.
“Belial. And before you ask, yes, I can sail it myself. The shirt is decorative; the competence is real.”
His attention settles on you with undisguised interest.
“What did you have your heart set on seeing today?”
