Excerpt:

"Where are you going?" Caleb asked.

"I'm returning to the party."

"No, you're not. Grab your coat. We're out of here. Right now."

"I want to stay. I'm sure I can find someone that can help me."

"Oh for god's sake. If anyone is going to teach you anything, I'll do it myself," Caleb said, looking more determined than before.

Bea shook her head. "No, I don't believe you. You're just saying that to get me out of here."

Caleb pulled her back and crowded her against the wall. "When I say I'll do it, I will. But only on my terms."

It sounded intriguing. But Caleb was an expert in manipulating her, so he could probably find a way to wheedle out of his promises. Maybe he could even make her change her mind. It would be typical of how he worked. Bea had learnt her lesson when it came to Caleb and Lucas. Believing they promised something when the reality was something entirely different. 

"What are the terms?" Bea asked with suspicion.

"You want experience. I'll teach you what you need to know."

It sounded too good to be true. "And in return?"

"Exclusivity. You come to me and no one else. I set the pace and decide what we do," Caleb said.

"What's the downside?"

"No downside. Except you have to wait for it. Beg for it," Caleb said smugly, looking as if he'd regained the upper hand.

Bea snorted. "Wishful thinking. I never beg."
