The atmosphere in the flat was so highly charged that it seemed to have affected Andrew. “Is it okay if I take my jacket off and sit down before we start to talk?” he asked.
“If you must,” said Grace, realizing she sounded ungracious but desperate to hear what he had to say.
“I could do with a coffee too,” he added.
“I’m sorry, you must think me incredibly rude, but I need to know what…”
He nodded. “Sure, I understand, but it’s not easy for me either.”
Reluctantly Grace made them both coffee, and by the time she handed him his mug he seemed more relaxed, but was plainly still uncomfortable.
“This is no fun for me either, Grace,” he admitted. “David’s been my friend for years.”
“Then why are you doing it?”

“And how did he do that?”
“By giving Amber information about her sexual preferences in advance. She was worn out very quickly, which was his intention. He wanted her to fail.”
“Why did he take her there if he wanted her to fail?”
“At first I think he wanted her to do well, but as the months went by he realized success would change the balance of their relationship. She was gaining in confidence all the time, and he decided he’d preferred the dynamics the way they were before.”
“Then why did he stop going out with her after she’d failed? The dynamics, as you put it, wouldn’t have changed then.”
“The Dining Club changes everyone, Grace. Surely you’ve realized that by now? It changes the guest and it changes the person who’s brought t. . .
