Stella Grace deleted the number, threw the phone on the bedside table, and lay down on the bed.
She was so tired that she fell asleep without taking a bath.
She had a dream.
She dreamed that she was sitting on a boat, surrounded by a lake that stretched into the horizon. The sparkling surface of the lake reflected her face.
Jasper Milton was also on the boat. He leaned over, kissed her, took off her clothes, and made love with her. As she reached the peak of pleasure, Jasper's face suddenly turned into Frederick's.
She was startled at the change and tried to escape in a panic. Frederick held onto her waist to prevent her from leaving and forced her to have sex with him.
She kicked him away in fear but couldn't retreat, so she immediately jumped into the lake.
At the bottom of the lake, she saw a woman who was also naked.
