1. Of Boys and Beasts

Number Nine has been a slave for as long as they can remember, which, honestly isn't saying much, seeing as how they only remember the past 10 years of their very, very long life. But then, while almost killing themself for their master's entertainment, they catch the eye of an angel and a king. Between conflicting morals, conflicting goals, and confliciting advice, Nine...just doesn't know what to do anymore. Add onto that the burning need for revenge and, well, that's just the best recipe for disaster.
