CHAPTER 4 Solo had immediately followed his maharishi and Lex into the woods. He made sure to keep downwind, so neither his dragon or Lex could scent him. Not an easy feat, but for some reason he knew he had to follow them without them knowing he was there and damn, was he happy he did. He was learning a lot of things even if it was by eavesdropping. For example, Talpa, he would need to remember to call his maharishi that from this day forward. Solo really liked that name and from what his maharishi said, so did he. Then there was the fact that his dragon had deep feelings for him. Solo had always felt a pull towards Talpa. He had always figured it was a great friendship brought on by so many years of being together, but when he actually thought about it, Solo had to agree it was more.
