Eddie Gluskin Outlast Novels & Stories

"Oh my god, look! Justin's gone completely delusional. He actually printed a fake poster just to make himself look good!" "Hahaha! He's probably terrified of being embarrassed when the news reporters come to interview us, so he made up a fake acceptance!" While they were riding high on their laughter, Edward walked into the hall, scowling. I could vaguely make out a few reporters trailing behind him, but was held back by security. I knew the AI glitch had finally appeared. Their time to celebrate was officially up. Completely blind to Edward's dark expression, Luke laughed boisterously and threw an arm around his shoulder, eager to share the joke.

He decided to go to his house. When he arrived, Butler Dave was outside. When he saw a car, he went to the gate to look. He was shocked to see Mr Edwards; it was two years since he last saw him and Mr Lewis told him about the treatment he received from Mr Edwards. “Mr Edwards, may I help you?” Glen Edwards replied, “Butler Dave, where is Patrick?” Butler Dave told him that Mr Lewis was at the Anthony mansion. “Please give me the address; I want to speak to him.”

If Zogo so much as blinked wrong, Finn would react before anyone else noticed the atmosphere change. Jerald and Brook, his security leads, were stationed nearby....subtle but alert. Brook lingered near the hall entrance, pretending to be absorbed in a phone call, while Jerald stood by the refreshments, half-sipping a drink that had never been touched. Everything was covered. Zogo didn’t blink. He already knew what Edgar wanted. The pleasantries were bait. The real words came next. “I imagine the Musk legacy must be… difficult to navigate these days,” Edgar said, eyes flicking subtly in the direction Amara had gone.

“GPS? If it weren’t for me, the GPS would be lost and y'all would be sittin pretty in that shit for the next three to four hours.” Jay only shoved Ed’s phone into the glove box before leaning his skull against the window and crossing his arms over his chest. Mj pointed at the busy highway and cocked her head toward Moxie, who pointed to his nose, “Eddie is the finest tracker in Quicksilver, cher.” Mj’s mouth hung open as Ed shook his head, “I WAS the best tracker Mox, little Briella’s got that title now” Ed beamed and Moxie sat forward whistling through his teeth “Aye Eddie Che Che Brie is no little girl, she is all woman.” Moxie sat forward and made an hourglass shape with his hands as Ed

After Eddie cut ties, Digger Corp tanked. Total wipeout. Everything got sold off to cover debt. Glenna? No longer the queen bee of anything. She had nothing. No backups. No cash. No name. The day Eddie got discharged, he went straight home. Parked himself on the couch and kept scrolling through old texts from Rhea. Again. And again. He'd called. Texted. Nothing. Her socials were dead, number gone. Like she'd disappeared off the face of the Earth.

“We are here, and we’ll keep going.” Eddie hadn’t moved from the chair since he started watching the broadcast. The TV showed the Oakley Corp’s gala on a loop. His eyes were stuck to watching that damn cripple limp on the stage with his fellow sinner at his side…. Well, he couldn’t call him a cripple anymore, seeing that he is now on his feet. The applause reached into his new hotel room and made his skin crawl. And there was his Rosie smiling and clapping, looking so damn happy.

God, she was gorgeous. USB was plugged in. No explosions. Just one file. A video, We played it. Edward's face dominated the screen. He was older than I remembered. Gray around the temples. Lines under his eyes. But his eyes were the same—calculating, proud, unapologetic. "If you're reading this," he began, "then Langston has gone rogue. That wasn't the plan. She was supposed to be a hammer, not a scalpel." I scowled.

“When was the last time we saw each other again? That was six years ago at my wedding ceremony which was also the last time Eddie saw his daughter.” “You have heard from Eddie,” I said. “Yes, I have. He works with my dad and misses his daughter so much but he won’t tell the truth because he is too sorry to do so,” Stiles replied. “I thought he resigned from being a cop?” I asked. “That man is an experienced and loved man so there is no way he was going to stay in retirement for long. Mark asked him to resume work,” Stiles answered. “Wow, that’s great news. So how are things in California?”

Eden would benefit from the partnership, Glenn Holdings would gain the expansion leverage they wanted, and neither of us were wasting time pretending otherwise. The issue was that Glenn Andrews liked resistance. He was the kind of businessman who liked dragging negotiations out just enough to see who lost patience first. Tonight’s email had been another unnecessarily detailed revision of terms I’d already reviewed twice earlier in the week. Nothing substantial had changed. No hidden clauses. No strategic shifts. Just Glenn reminding everyone involved that he could prolong the process if he wanted to. I read through the file anyway. Carefully. Because men like Glenn only needed to be underest

If not, there was skiing. Those checking-in would be later in the morning because of travel being slowed for safety. Eddie was working on fixing the pantry door again. Jody could hear him cursing the door and the boggart he insisted lived in the pantry. Eddie was the handyman around the Blue Moon and the hamlet. He’d been here forever, and he looked like it too—a big bushy beard which was just like his hair, whiter than the snow outside. Eddie could pass for Santa on vacation around here. He was a cheerful person mostly, unless he was fixing something that wouldn’t stay fixed, like the pantry door.
