Not Even a Beast
There was only one bed in the room. Although the couple loved each other, they were determined to observe propriety. She could not bear to make him sleep on the floor, so she let him share the bed.
Between them she placed a pillow with a note on it: ‘Cross this line and you're a beast.’
Being a gentleman, he restrained himself and did nothing all night.
The next morning, she woke up and left abruptly without saying goodbye. All she left behind was a note: ‘You're not even as good as a beast.’
