Marriage consummation. It was the words that the man before her had repeatedly said to her since they encountered each other in this second meeting.
Joanna would be calm if it were only a mere word that was uttered without any true meaning by him.
However, looking at the unusual, daunting expression of the man who had hugged her, along with an intimate action that she had never experienced before, Joanna turned alarmed. At some point, she somehow felt that he was not being playful by giving her an empty threat, as she could sense from the way he touched her before that he was burning with desire.
Joanna felt suffocated. She could not let that happen. Otherwise, she could not escape from him and their marriage forever. She would be trapped like Joanna in the dream.
