Between Masks

di Ocean X (Autore)

Ocean X, 2025

Two heirs. Two histories. One collision they can't escape. Noah Wellin, 22, was raised inside the rigid world of New York old money—polite, controlled, sculpted by the expectations of Phillips Exeter Academy and later Yale, where refinement is mandatory and emotion is optional. Atlas Sterlins, 26, heir to another Manhattan dynasty, shaped by the same elite pipeline—Phillips Exeter, Yale, and a Stanford MBA—institutions that produce leaders, not lovers; men trained to win, not feel. They come from the same elite orbit: private academies, Upper East Side galas, family alliances, and a social scene where image is everything. Their connection was always there—quiet, tense, dangerous—but they never crossed the line. Until a major partnership forces their families' companies to work together. Suddenly Noah and Atlas are in constant proximity: late-night meetings, travel, deadlines, the pressure of legacy closing in. What they buried for years ignites—slow, sharp, impossible to control. Attraction deepens. Jealousy surfaces. Distance becomes impossible. This is not a gentle love story. This is the unraveling of two men who were never taught how to feel—only how to hide. Between Masks explores: slow-burn M/M tension obsession-driven intimacy New York old-money dynamics high-pressure corporate power plays jealousy and emotional volatility identity conflict and awakening two powerful heirs losing control of the lives they were trained to perfect Told in real time—every shift in energy, every stolen moment, every night where the mask cracks and the truth pushes through—this is the story of desire becoming undeniable and changing everything. Two New York heirs. Years of restraint. One moment that shatters the distance between them.
