In last week’s excerpt from Fangs and Fists: Grit, the rebel leaders have accepted Grit as an ally on a trial basis, and he’s been restricted to the warehouse until he proves himself. This excerpt picks up from there, and with the Alpha wolf providing words of encouragement.
Thank you for stopping by!
Excerpt:
“We’ll keep in touch,” Ashley said before she and Blaxton left.
The Alpha remained behind for a moment. He held Grit’s gaze and said, “Once a wolf, always a wolf. Don’t forget that, even if you can’t remember everything about your past.”
“Thank you, sir,” Grit replied.
The Alpha left.
Zari still stood nearby. She tilted her gaze toward his and said, “This won’t last forever. I believe in you, Grit. I always have. That’s why I chose you to help plan the wolves’ escape from the tower.”
Grit
(Fangs and Fists)
by Kate Hill
Werewolf gladiator Grit faced his own mortality in the arena, only to be resurrected by a demon. Grit now lives a shadowy existence as one of the soulless, remembering only bits and pieces of his former life. Nonetheless, he recognizes evil and knows he must fight for the future of his young son, as well as the rest of the world.
Zari, a vampire warrior, helped Grit escape the tower where he had been imprisoned. She had feelings for Grit when they’d first met, but at the time he had been mated to another wolf. Now that he’s on his own, they’re free to explore their feelings as they fight side by side as part of the rebellion against the demons. In the midst of war, their love grows, but danger is everywhere.
Haylen, the demon who resurrected Grit, offers a bargain that may save or destroy the rebellion. Whatever the outcome, Zari and Grit intend to face it together and explore the once forbidden passion between them.

I like the way people are standing with him. Enjoyed the excerpt!
I’m glad he’s getting a little encouragement.
This is really pulling me in– You’ve done a marvelous job of making our hero, Grit, a sympathetic character. 🙂
Only a few words from a friend but they said a lot to him.

It’s good that he’s getting a little support from others. I believe he needs it.
