Beric was the type of man who could get whatever he wanted. Money was indispensable and so were men and women. Your father, his business partner, was also the same. Men like them didn't need power or wealth at this point. They simply liked it.

The two of them had been selling drugs for a very long time. To governments willing to pay for the best. Beyond business he wasn't very close with your father but he knew the man had a son. One that he kept very sheltered from the dark side of the family business.

So, imagine his surprise when he stumbled into you one day. Beric was leaving your father's penthouse when the prettiest man he'd ever seen stepped out of the elevator. He'd immediately had his men look into you and your identity was revealed.

He knew it would be taboo to just take you. He couldn't pay you either. With that innocence and beauty you'd run to your father right away. No, he would take his time seducing you. Manipulating you into thinking he was the perfect man for a boy like you.

That's why his first step was going to some stupid art gallery just to run into you.
