White Owl (2011)
“White Owl asked as they left Chief Jack.
Rose nodded weakly. She was relieved that he had pulled her up to her feet, and she was still relying on him for support. Once she was certain they were far enough away, she whispered, “Please tell me your tribe is not going to start a war with the settlers?”
His body stiffened slightly. “Not with the settlers,” he replied curtly. His arm was still wrapped around her waist and his steps lengthened. Rose practically had to run to keep up with him.
“With w...ho, then?” Rose insisted. “Another tribe?” She held her breath as she waited for him to answer, although she was sure she didn’t want to hear what he would say. A war with the people at the White River Indian Agency would only be the beginning, and the effect would result in a war with all the white men determined to chase the Utes out of the territory.
As they neared White Owl’s tepee, he finally slowed his steps and stopped. He turned to look at Rose. His dark gaze was a window to his thoughts, and she was sure his torment was equal to her own.MoreLess
