Are You Lost? - Eddie Gluskin X Reader

Chapter One:

(Y/T/N) = your town/state/home name
(Y/N) = your name
(L/N) = last name

I watched as my uber driver made his way down the mountain. The last person I would see for a few years outside of the mount massive walls. I was almost sad to see him leave, I probably would've been devastated to see him go if I wasn't so excited for my new home. Finally after years of being in foster care, I could have a place to call home.

I began up the steps to the entrance of the castle that stood before me as I continued following my train of thought. I was sitting in the foster care facility when the phone rang, Jeremy Blaire, THE Jeremy Blaire, he wanted me to be his intern. Apparently Mr. Blaire was building a female ward on the other side of the mountain and wanted me to take it over once it was finished, it would take about two years to build, and by then id be twenty. Until then, I would be in the male ward learning how to operate such a place.

The big door creaked as I opened it, you could've heard a pen drop the entrance hall was so quiet.

"...Hello...?" I called out into the empty room, the only response I received was my own echo. The room was empty. I looked at the walls and floors that surrounded me, they looked so well kept and pretty. The carpet was cleaned and the floors were all swept. It was beautiful. "Hello?!" I called out again, this time louder. There was no response, only quiet whispers from down one of the hallways.

I walked past the empty front desk and began following the whispers. "Hello? Who's there? Maybe you can help me, I need to find Mr. Blaire's office." I turned the corner and found myself face to face with two fully naked men who looked to be twins, accompanied by a very rugged very skinny man who indeed had his shirt off. They looked at me with faces that were just as shocked as mine. "Umm... Hi?"

"Hi... A-are you lost or somethin?" The rugged looking man spoke first.

"Yes, I need to find Mr. Blaire's office. There weren't any maps at the front desk." I pointed behind me and laughed nervously. All three of them made me extremely uncomfortable. The twins never took their eyes off of my breasts and the scruffy man smiled and kept eye contact, but his smile seemed so sinister. None of them answered me, so I spoke again. "Do you know where I can find his office? Or at least someone who works here?" From the looks of these men, the people who work here aren't doing a very good job. One is severely malnourished and they all three have no concept of dress code.

"Umm, yeah. Yeah Blaire's office. Its right down this hallway. Follow this hallway until you reach the cafeteria, if there are people in the cafeteria then don't walk through it unless you have a doctor with you. Ya know, safety precautions." The scruffy man spoke once more, making eye contact and even smiling slightly.

"Thank you Mr....?" I held out my hand for him to shake it. He took it without hesitancy.

"Manera. Frank Manera the cannibal, you may have heard about me in the news a few years back." He smiled and shook my hand lightly before letting go. My eyes grew wide and I pulled my hand away gently.

"The Manera that had three bodies in his freezer? I do remember something like that." My voice and hands were shaking. I couldn't help it, I just shook hands with a cannibal. back when I was still in foster care, I heard about him. People said that it was one of the worst cases of cannibalism that had been recorded in the U.S. There were only three bodies found, with almost 50 missing in the local area. no one knew how he was able to kill so many and get away with only three convictions. The worst part is that he killed whoever he could get his hands on. He didn't have a specific 'taste' or victim profile like most cannibals do. He killed many men, women, and children. He bragged about how many people he killed that the police would never be able to find. So many people missing, dead, eaten. no one knows what he did with the bones. I felt my heart beat increase significantly and I tried to look away from the monster that stood before me.
