      After a round of hugs and shaking hands, he, Ace and their mom walked to the office. For the next two hours, they went over the books with Leah. They’d leased three thousand acres to a man from Texas who was always late with the lease money. That put a strain on making the payment on a three-hundred-thousand-dollar note at the bank. Seemed the economy, a flood and bad decisions made by their father had left the ranch deep in debt.

      Tuf rose from his chair. “I’ll go to the house and get my checkbook. I have some money in my account, and I’ll sign it over to the ranch.”

      “Absolutely not,” his mom said.

      “Sorry, Mom, it’s my money and I can do what I want with it and I can sell my truck.”

      “Slow down,” Ace advised. “You’re going to need a dependable truck if you start rodeoing.”

      “Yeah. I hadn’t thought of that.”

      Ace patted his back. “I’m sorry I was short with you earlier.”

      “Come on, Ace, don’t do that. Don’t treat me with kid gloves. You’ve never done that before.”

      Ace nodded. “Okay, then get your ass to rodeoing and see how much money you can win.”

      “That I can do.”

      “But I want you to know I’m proud of what you did for Michael. Dad would be, too.”

      “Thank you.” Emotions clogged his throat for a second, and he wondered why it had been so hard to open up and share his experience with his family. In the end it had been cathartic.

      His family might look at him differently, but he knew they would never treat him differently.

      That he could handle.

      Chapter Five

      Most of January Tuf busied himself learning the rodeo contracting business. Leah had a huge whiteboard in the office listing rodeos and horses and bulls to be delivered to said rodeos. He didn’t see Midnight’s name on the board. His mom hadn’t made her decision yet.
