Noah (32 page)

No longer did I feel like I needed to leave the ranch to find happiness, because I already had more than any man could ever ask for. I turned to find my dad in the crowd of family members. Next to my uncles, he stood, nodding his head in approval. At the end of the day I never thought I’d care what he thought, but I had been very wrong. I’d become the man he’d always wanted me to be. I’d accepted my birthright, and the fact that there was nothing out there in the world that could bring me more joy than the people in this room could.

That there is my happy ending.
