When he overhears Charlie worrying over Angel storming off to the Black Dot after a heated argument with Husker, Alastor decides to take the opportunity to ingratiate himself with the Princess by bringing the actor back safe and sound.
However, upon discovering that the reason for Angel’s anger is Charlie’s meddling with none other than Valentino, Alastor has an even better idea and offers Angel a bargain: he will free the other from Valentino’s contract if Angel signs a new one with him.
At first, all Alastor wants is to increase his influence over Charlie. Ridding himself of one of the Vees and acquiring Angel’s soul in the process is simply a bonus.
And yet, as he spends more time with Angel, he finds himself taking an unexpected interest in the other that goes beyond his initial plans.
Could this particular deal be more than even a master dealmaker like the Radio Demon bargained for?
(Or: What if it was Alastor, not Husk, who followed Angel to the Black Dot in Season 1 Episode 4, “Masquerade”?)
