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.<\/p>\n<p>Zari, a vampire warrior, helped Grit escape the tower where he had been imprisoned. She had feelings for Grit when they&#8217;d first met, but at the time he had been mated to another wolf.
