This was a devastatingly amazing story of a man that started as a regular thirteen year old average boy trying to be  like anyone else. Bullied in the worst possible way only to be severely  scarred for life and put through blinding painfully torture at such a young delicate age.  He becomes a man that is viewed as cruel, but can be also seen as fair at times. Thirteen broken women are in his care. They can be cared for and given the basics in life under his terms that are not really intolerable. Can it be seen that they are treated as slaves. Yes, but you must read the story and learn why these women are known as numbers and not names. Number Thirteen is special.  She is punished for her outspoken nature, punished so others are not. She is cared for. She is cherished by William, but then shunned just as fast. Punishment is earned just as much as a reward is and sometimes they are blurred in each others eyes. Women have the jealousy and we see that . Not only are the  women broken , but so is the boy that is now the man. This is dark, tragic, bitter and sweet. You don't want to like William and then you may not want to hate him. This is not a story of true romance, its about how cruel people can be, how the cruelty of others effect the ones they hurt and how someone with true passion can try to put the broken pieces together again. But not everyone wants to be saved. Not everyone can be saved. It starts with the age of thirteen, it can take thirteen people to get it right, thirteen people might not make to out in the end, a few may find true love, some may find the true end, some may only see darkness and maybe some might see a future......But it all has to do with the Number Thirteen.  READ IT!
