The Scalp Hunters
“The two Dog Eaters who got away only thought they were safe. He would catch up to them presently and relieve them of their lives and their hair.
His company strung out behind him, Venom looked for the marks Rubicon made to guide them. At intervals the grass had been ripped out exposing the dirt. Each mark was about a yard long and half a foot wide and tapered in the direction they were to go.
Venom thought of the blood he had sucked from the scalp earlier and smacked his lips, wishing there had... been more. Most folks didn’t realize how delicious blood was. Back when he did it for the first time, when he was dying of thirst on the desert, he’d never imagined how much he would like it or how addicting it could be. He hadn’t been joshing when he said that it was too bad blood wasn’t sold in bottles like whiskey and ale.
Hooves thudded and he acquired a shadow at his elbow.
“What do you want, Logan?” Of all his men, Venom trusted Logan the least. Logan was snake-mean and as shifty as desert sands on a windy day, and Venom suspected he had aspirations.MoreLess
