Isang gabi sa Davao City, ikinuwento ni Lola Anding sa kanyang apat na apo ang sinaunang alamat ni Madayaw, isang dalagang babaylan na minsang itinuring na huwaran ng kagandahan, karunungan, at katapatan sa mga diyos. Noong panahon ng mga diwata at bathala, nanirahan sa Bundok Apo ang mga makapangyarihang nilalang na gumagabay sa mundo. Sa kanilang piling naglingkod si Madayaw bilang alagad ni Haliya, diyosa ng kababaihan. Ngunit nagbago ang kanyang kapalaran nang hangarin siya ni Amanikable, ang diyos ng dagat, na humantong sa isang trahedyang yumanig sa kaharian ng mga diyos. Sa halip na mabigyan ng katarungan, si Madayaw ang naging biktima ng sumpa. Ang kanyang buhok ay naging mga buhay na ahas at ang kanyang mga mata ay nagkaroon ng kapangyarihang gawing bato ang sinumang tumingin sa kanya. Itinakwil siya ng mundo at itinago sa malayong pulo ng Camiguin, kung saan siya naging isang nilalang na kinatatakutan ng lahat. Ngunit sa likod ng alamat ng "halimaw" ay may isang katotohanang matagal nang nakalimutan. Ang unang aklat ng Mga Kuwento ni Lola Anding ay muling bumubuhay sa kuwento ni Madayaw, isang babaeng hinatulan nang hindi pinakinggan, at nagpapaalala na hindi lahat ng kinatatakutan ay masama, at hindi lahat ng bayani ay tunay na karapat-dapat sa paghanga.

Celine never cared about anyone or anything in particular, but herself. She grew into womanhood with a clear goal in mind---to survive. Wala siyang inaatrasan at kinatatakutan. Until she met Caleb---the man who seem to take pleasure in tormenting her with words; the man whose intense glare could make her body temperature increase; the man who was introducing her to a world she never knew to exist... The man who had sworn to claim her as his. ________________ DATE STARTED: SEPTEMBER 2, 2023

Camiya, a woman not particularly fond of making decisions, found solace in one choice she believed to be unquestionably right-committing her life to Heathe. She made a promise to be patient with him, to stand by him, and to fight for their love no matter what challenges they might face. A promise she held onto with steadfast determination. Heathe instantly knew that Camiya was the one his life was missing the very first time he laid his eyes on her. He was 'the boss' in the relationship, but her happiness always comes first. He vowed to love and cherish her, to keep their hearts chained forever. Unfortunately, those promises eventually faded into mere words. Because one day, Heathe woke up realizing that he no longer loved his wife. Boredom and discontent plagued their marriage, and the fear of constantly causing her pain led him to seek a legal separation. Camiya, however, refused to release him from their commitment. She refused to give up on him. And so, she made an agreement that would bring her husband back to his senses. (C) Story written and book cover designed by Tala Natsume 2021
