Hello, readers! This is the final chapter of Suzanna's Darlings, but not the last story in this saga. After this chapter, a new series will begin that contains the same characters and themes. This story takes place after the previous chapter, but bounces to events that happened around the same time as chapter 03 of Barry's Sluts. I had to write this chapter TWICE after the death of my previous computer, but I think it turned out better than I originally intended. I hope you all enjoy!
New readers should know that this is the latest chapter in my longest-running series. The chapters can be read in this order:
Ariadne's Dreams (
Chapter 1
,
Chapter 2
,
Chapter 3
,
Chapter 4
)
Barry's Sluts (
Chapter 1
,
Chapter 2
,
Chapter 3
)
Suzanna's Darlings (
Chapter 1
,
Chapter 2
)
If you don't wish to read all of that first, then that's no problem. You can enjoy this story on its own as well.
Thank you for reading, and leave a comment!

NOW
It was a late weekend morning, and Ariadne was nowhere to be found in the kitchen. That usually meant that something was wrong.
Suzanna knew for a fact that Ariadne was anal about cooking. Even though Barry had collared a number of slaves, and it was their job to prepare the meals around the Ranch, Ariadne was always someplace nearby, either coaching the other girls or taking over the duties herself. Ariadne was Barry's mother, she
loved
to cook, and Barry adored her cooking.
But today, no one had seen her. It was already 11:40, and Ariadne had never shown up in the kitchen. So, Suzanna marched down the hall to investigate. It was probably nothing—Ariadne had likely overslept or something, but it didn't hurt to check. With Barry gone, Suzanna was in charge here, and there was no way in hell she was going to risk that
anything
had gone wrong her first day in command.
As she walked through the halls, the other submissives gave her a salutatory "Good morning, Alpha Slut" and stepped respectfully out of her path. It was an empowering feeling . . . being Queen-Among-Slaves . . . and it needed little adjustment. She was
born
to play this role, and it fit her like a glove.
Suzanna's see-through gown showed off the outline of her body as well as her pregnant belly quite well, and some of the Sluts eyed her with pangs of jealousy. The others who were pregnant themselves eyed her with a knowing smirk. The women who weren't carrying a child just yet only needed to be patient. There was no way the Master would let them remain that way for long.
As soon as Suzanna reached the hall where Ariadne's special chambers were located, she was glad she'd made the decision to check in. There was Emily, Ariadne's own favorite slave, laying on the floor right outside of the door, huddled into a ball like a loyal pup.
"Emily? What the hell are you doing out here?" Suzanna asked.
Emily opened her eyes and glanced up. Her makeup had run terribly, and her face was a mess. It was obvious that she'd spent the entire night crying.
"I . . . I'm sorry, Alpha Slut," Emily stammered as she scrambled to her feet. "I'll . . . I'll just step out of your—"
"You aren't answering my question," Suzanna demanded. "What are you doing out here?"
Emily glanced at the floor. "M-My Mistress t-threw me out last night. I . . . I fear that I displeased her."
Suzanna nodded, sympathetic. "What did you do?"
"I . . . I don't know!" Emily cried, her voice cracking and the tears flowing again. "Last night . . . it was so magical for us. I made love to the Mistress all night, and we collapsed in bed together. But then . . . but then . . ."
Emily sobbed and lost herself to sorrow. Suzanna took the naked girl into her arms and held her.
"There there, sweetie. You can't go to pieces like this. It's unsightly and wholly inappropriate for a slave. You need to get yourself cleaned up, eat something, and keep yourself ready in case your Mistress needs you to serve."
Emily nodded. "Yes . . . you-you're right."
"Now go on. I'll talk to your Mistress for you and try to see what the problem is. I'll send someone to collect you if she tells me she has need of you."
"T-Thank you, Alpha Slut," Emily said with a very weak smile. She walked away, heading to a bathroom to do as asked, and in the meantime, Suzanna took a deep breath and headed into the room.
Inside, it was a complete mess. The bed was unmade, things were strewn about the floor, and the entire room still had the lingering aroma of sex hours after anything could have occurred. Suzanna didn't see Ariadne anywhere, and was starting to worry when she heard the shower running in the bathroom.
Entering the steam-filled bath, Suzanna found Ariadne sitting on a stool under the water, her head held low, and her shoulders hunched dejectedly.
There was no doubt that something was very,
