Dragon Awakened (2013)
“She’d collapsed the moment he’d opened his door, and he’d barely managed to guide her to the living room. Her broken report about what had happened at the lab was slowly seeping into his brain. First, how this would set them back. Second, that Darren was dead. And Purcell had never once thanked him for his work, praised him for his accomplishments. Guilt lanced his grief.
“You should have alerted me when you knew Cyntag and Ruby were outside your house. I could have helped.”
Magda loose...ned her grip on him and sat up straight on the couch. “I told Darren we should let you know, but he wanted to handle it himself. He always felt inadequate. I probably didn’t help, comparing him to Justin years ago. To you. I think he needed to prove himself. But Darren doesn’t have the magick you do. He did his best, but in the end, it wasn’t enough. My fighting skills are a bit rusty, I’m afraid. I wasn’t enough either.”
