Feeling he left both Indiscreet and the new system in Bull’s capable hands, Bear left the club burned out. He returned only when his belly clutched with need and his loneliness left him on the razor’s edge of sanity.

He took care of the sub and himself with the minimum of attention that good aftercare allowed, and then he left.
