Renata was getting more and more uncomfortable with her body; cold sweat was pouring out of her.

Renata felt uncomfortable; she hurriedly took off her dress and put on a thin nightgown, after which she laid her body back down by pulling the blanket up to the neckline. She was pensive for a moment.
