there is a way I believe that a sub or slave can talk and have contact with a previous Master. As your sub's or slave's current Master you have to make shure that your slave or sub understands that you are the only one who she or he is to except orders, and or comands from, that doesn't meen to show lack of respect, but in all and at all times that the sub or slve is required to do something that he or she will respond only to you.
