Ransom really looked at the other man for the first time, shook his head, stared again.“ Holy hell, your eyes are like a fucking viper’s.” Venom raised an eyebrow.“ You have hair prettier than one of Astaad’s concubines.” Ransom gave the vampire the finger. Venom grinned.

About This Quote

In this quote from the second book in the series, Venom is describing his new companion, Ransom. He says that Ransom’s eyes are like a snake’s and he has hair that is more beautiful than any concubine. What I find most interesting about this quote is that Venom has already known Ransom for quite some time and yet he still refers to him as an “other man” and a “concubine.” Not only is this disrespectful but it also shows how far apart these two men clashed in personality.
