Si Mayor Lucas Monteverde ay hindi lamang ang pinuno ng buong Occidental Mindoro. Siya rin ang itinuturing na pinakamakapangyarihan, pinakamayaman, at walang duda, ang pinakamayabang na lalaki sa buong lalawigan. Sa kanyang murang edad, hawak niya ang respeto at takot ng bawat mamamayan. Ang bawat hakbang niya ay tila ba pag-aari niya ang bawat pulgada ng lupa, at ang bawat salitang lumalabas sa kanyang bibig ay inaakalang batas. Malamig, seryoso, at napakahirap pakibaguhan—ito ang larawan ng lalaking para sa lahat ay sadyang napakalayo ang agwat. Lahat ay yumuyuko sa kanya. Lahat ay natatakot sa kanya. At lahat ay naniniwalang walang sinuman ang makapagpapabago sa kanya. Lahat, maliban kay Amara Cruz. Matalino, matapang, at puno ng paninindigan—si Amara ay hindi kailanman umatras sa anumang hamon. Mula sa araw na una niyang nakita ang hindi matitinag na Mayor sa gitna ng isang pampublikong okasyon sa bayan, isang bagay ang kanyang napagdesisyunan: gagawin niyang sa kanya lamang ito. Sinasabi ng lahat na siya ay nawawala sa katinuan. Ipinapayo nila sa kanya na huwag na siyang umasa, dahil ang puso ni Mayor Lucas ay tila gawa sa bato. Sinasabi nilang walang puwang ang isang katulad niya sa mundo ng lalaking iyon, at ang paghabol niya ay magdudulot lamang ng kahihiyan sa kanyang sarili. Ngunit hindi nakikinig si Amara. Hindi siya natitinag. Sinusundan niya ang Mayor saanman ito magpunta—mula sa munisipyo, mga proyekto sa kabundukan, mga pagtitipon, hanggang sa mga lugar na akala nito ay ligtas na siya sa abala. Ginagamit niya ang bawat pagkakataon upang kausapin ito, hanggang sa umabot sa puntong sinusubok na niya ang pasensya ng lalaki. Tinatawag niya itong "Aking Mayor" sa paraang nakakagalit dito, habang ang tanging isinasukli naman nito ay mga malamig na tingin, matatalim na salita, at walang humpay na pagtanggi.
