Kayden
Coming back to Barnacle Cove feels like standing at the edge of something new. While transitioning wasn’t easy, it brought me home to myself. I’ve always known I was a man, and now the world finally gets to see Kayden, too.All I want is to be accepted, desired, and loved for exactly who I am. I want someone who makes me feel safe, who is steady and kind… someone a lot like my dad’s best friend—and my new boss—Caleb. He’s been my anchor for as long as I can remember, grounding me with quiet strength and unwavering care.
But I know better than to want him.
So instead, in the privacy of my bedroom, I let myself explore my desires by trading words and fantasies with a faceless stranger online, BigOnBacks, who makes me feel wanted in ways I never knew I needed. No expectations. No risks. Just heat, honesty, and the thrill of being seen.
Caleb
I’ve known Kayden his entire life. He’s Sal’s kid, meaning he’s always been off-limits. Still, I couldn’t be prouder of the man he’s become—confident and resilient, breathtaking in ways that sneak up on me unexpectedly.I tell myself it’s just protectiveness. That I don’t notice the way his curls fall into his eyes, or how his lean body moves so gracefully. That I don’t ache every time he smiles at me like I’m his safe place.
But truthfully? I want him—and I absolutely shouldn’t.
I’m a flirt. A commitment-phobe. The last man who deserves someone like Kayden. So I turn to my favorite distraction, losing myself in late-night hookups and explicit messages with an online stranger named dicKmedown… never imagining how close to home that desire really is.
