If your route to the DNS server is through your VPN router, you are protected.

DNS leaks are a subset of the problem where not all of your traffic goes through the VPN routes. If your only connection to the internet is through the VPN, the odds of that happening approaches 0%. If you're using some browser extension, the odds of that happening approaches 100%
