But Dorian knew that a bad dream could kill you, and he fought through his disbelief, tore through the sudden wave of resentment and anger and hurt.
Really, he should have seen it coming. It was as much on his naive shoulders as Bull's or anyone else's, he supposed. But his face was scalding hot, and his eyes ached. They were dry. The dragon belched magical flames into the air around them, boiling the room into chaos along with the Viddasala and her men.
But Dorian kept his eyes on one man alone, a laser gaze, cutting through the fight around him. He had to get close, but not too close.
He supposed he'd already made that mistake already.
"Vanity and foolishness. I really ought to have known."
