“Tel me about it,” she drawled as she accepted the hand and the gentle tug to her feet.
Kaeden just chuckled before he bent his head to kiss her cheek as KJ stuck his chubby hand in the pocket of his burnt orange button-up shirt.
“Where’s Dad?”
“Down at the paddocks with al your brothers,” she said. “How about you take this little one here with you to see the real horses. You’l save your mama a walk.”
“No problem,” he told her before turning and walking down the hal to grab his keys and leave the house.
As soon as they stepped down off the porch, Kaeden lifted the toddler up onto his neck. He enjoyed the feel of his nephew’s hands lightly resting against his closely shaven head as he walked down the dirt-packed yard toward the ranch in the distance.
“Un-cle…Un-cle…Un-cle,” KJ sang.
Kaeden was just in his late twenties, but the feel and sound of his nephew reminded him that he was ready for kids. With Felecia? Something about the idea of that didn’t sit right with him. Not right at al .
“What’s up, family?” Kaeden greeted the men of his family as he neared the large and spacious paddock where one of the hands was working out a Strong stal ion.
“Da da da da da da,” KJ squealed at the sight of Kahron.
Kahron smiled, his eyes covered by his ever-present shades. “Hey, Daddy’s boy,” he said, reaching his fist up to his son. “Gimme dap.”
KJ made a fist and pushed against his father’s. “Dap,” he said, his eyes bright.
The men al laughed, and that caused KJ to squeal with laughter as wel as he covered his mouth with both of his hands.
Kael took off his Stetson and wiped the sweat from his forehead, the dampness causing his silver hair to lie plastered to his head. “Go on ’head, Kade,” he said, nodding his head in the direction of his eldest child.
Kaeden, Kahron, and Kaleb al looked at Kade, who shoved his large hands into the pockets of his navy Dickies work pants. “Kaeden, did you check the stuff I asked you about?”
Kaeden nodded as KJ placed his hands over his spectacles. “Everything’s straight.”
“Good. Just got an early word that Lockhart Farm is going out of business and they’re going to sel their farming equipment—equipment we al can use.”
“Confirmed?” Kaleb asked, shifting his weight on the heels of his dusty Timberland boots.
Kade nodded solemnly. “Unfortunately.”
“Me and Randy Lockhart started out around the same time. His boy Juba and him have worked real hard to make it last,” Kael added. “Feels like we swooping in like vultures.”
Kaleb snorted. “I disagree,” he drawled.
“Kaleb and I think the most fiscal y sound way to approach this for al three ranches is to buy into the equipment together,” Kaeden offered. “That way you’re not taking out an unnecessary loan that carries risk and you’re contributing equal y to the capital needed.”
“Sounds like a plan to me,” Kahron said with a shrug.
“Me too,” Kaleb added.
Kade nodded. “We can ride over to the ranch and look at the equipment.
