This is my second foray into the transsexual genre. It is also an incest story. I set out to create a truly appealing, sexy heroine. I hope I succeeded. Enjoy the story. I hope I didn't offend anyone. I certainly didn't set out to. I welcome your feedback.

The name's Dominic, "Dom" for short. I'm a diesel mechanic. Maybe I'm a little rough around the edges. But hey, I have my sensitive side too. Didn't I cry when my cat Sammy died last year? I've been known to tear up at sad movies, too.
So when my baby sister called the other night and asked if I would take her son Kevin out on his birthday, I thought about it for just a second before saying yes. He's turning 21 this year, and she's going to be out of town, and would I help, blah, blah, blah.
Anyway, this wouldn't have even come up if Kevin and I didn't live in the same city, away from our hometown. You see, Kevin is going to cosmetology school, and I work for a heavy equipment company, and we both live in a seaport town two hours from home. There's a cosmetology school in our town, but Kevin chose to move away because he wanted a new start. Besides, some guys from high school may have been hassling him.
You see, in his senior year in high school, Kevin confirmed what everybody in the family already knew by coming out as gay. He had always been somewhat effeminate, but after he came out, and after the ensuing tumult had subsided, he had relaxed and become even more so. It had made a few people in the family uncomfortable, but we had all come to accept him.
I had heard from Kevin from time to time. We had talked on the phone, and I had seen him at home on the holidays. Kevin had always been friendly, and had given me a big smile and hugged my neck. He got my name once in the family lottery (that's what I call it) for Christmas gift-giving, and had given me a very nice set of insulated driving gloves.
After I hung up with my sister, I called Kevin on his cell phone.
"Kevin, this is your uncle Dominic."
"Oh hi, Uncle Dom! So nice to hear from you."
"Yeah. Well, I was calling about your birthday." I found myself suddenly nervous.
"Yes?" he said.
"Well, your mom called me and asked if I would take you out and I said..."
"Okay, I'll go," Kevin said quickly.
"Well, uh..." I stammered, "Don't you have plans?" I hadn't expected him to agree so readily.
"Well, the girls are giving me a little party at school, but that's about it. Are you trying to weasel out, Uncle Dom?" He sounded a little hurt. I hastened to clarify the situation.
"No, no, Kevin! I'm happy to take you. I just thought that a popular guy like you would have a, uh, significant other, if you know what I mean."
"No, Uncle Dom. I don't have a boyfriend, if that's what you mean." He emphasized the "boy" in boyfriend. Probably to make me squirm. It worked. "I'm actually a homebody," he added. "Most nights I stay home and study."
"Well, what do you say to a nice dinner and a movie for your birthday?" I asked.
"That sounds wonderful. I accept."
"Okay. I'll pick you up Friday night. Wear something nice, 'cause we're going somewhere swanky."
"I'll be ready," he said.
We set a time and place. I would be picking him up at seven at his apartment.
Now, like I said, I'm a diesel mechanic. But I do pretty well for myself. I have a nice apartment, a truck, a nice car, and a bass boat. (Diesel mechanics are in high demand.) I also know how to dress, when I have to.
On Friday evening, I drove over to Kevin's apartment. He lived in an area that had seen better times. On the way into the apartment complex, I saw one or two groups of young men hanging out on street corners.
I was dressed in gray wool dress pants, a crisp yellow shirt, and turquoise tie. I had on my nicest soft brown leather dress shoes and my cream-colored cashmere cardigan. I was driving my Buick Lucerne instead of my work truck.
I knocked on Kevin's door and waited. When the door opened, I was taken aback by what I saw. A lovely young woman stood before me. Her hair, glossy and black, was parted in the middle and shaped smoothly around her face. Her eyes were big and blue and bright. A thin silver chain accentuated her slender neck, matched by tasteful dangly earrings. She wore a dark green cowl neck dress over a petite, almost coltish figure. The hem of the dress ended just above her knees, revealing finely muscled calves and nicely shaped ankles. Her makeup was perfect, and her red lips parted in a smile when she saw me. She extended a feminine, manicured hand to me and said, "Uncle Dom! So nice to see you!"
"Um, hello. I was looking for Kevin," I managed to stammer.
"It's me, Uncle Dom. It's me, Kevin," the lovely young woman said.
I couldn't say anything. I just stammered some more.
"Kevin? How could it be...?" I managed to get out.
She grabbed my hand and led me into her apartment. I was so surprised that I let her lead me to a chair at the kitchen table. She sat down across from me.
"I should have warned you what to expect," she said.
"I can't believe it! Is it really you, Kevin?"
"Yes it is, Uncle. Only now I go by the name Karen."
"Well, I mean, what happened?"
She grabbed my rough, calloused hand in her feminine one and asked, "Are you disappointed?"
She was smiling, but I saw her lower lip tremble, and there was a plea in her eyes.
I smiled at her pretty face, her beautiful eyes, and said, "No, I'm not, Karen. Not at all. You look lovely."
Tears glistened in her eyes. She blinked, looked away. "Thank you," she said quietly. She got up and walked over to the couch, grabbed her shawl and handed it to me before turning away and standing there. For a moment (moron that I am), I didn't know what she wanted me to do. Then I remembered my manners and placed the wrap on her shoulders. She looked at me in a way that made my knees weak.
