[edit] Synopsis

This passionate story begins in the romantic but very cruel age of Colonial Mexico. Camila Darién, daughter of Justo Darién, is celebrating her engagement to Santiago, the Ferrier of the village of San Fernando. But the party is interrupted by the men of Don Jorge Mancera y Ruiz, the tyrannical Lord of the town, who has asserted his "droit de seigneur". Santiago is then wounded, and Camila is taken away, but Don Jorge is too drunk and Camila manages to escape the palace, which is where the story starts to take effect. Camila is then kidnapped by pirates, raped and sold as a slave in the island of La Mariana to Don Timoteo.

Don Timoteo then teaches her to act like a lady by taking art and etiquette classes. But Camila still misses her family back home and plans to run away by wearing male clothes and boarding a ship. She is later found by Don Timoteo who takes her home and punishes her by not letting her go out of his house. Camila gets outraged when she finds out that her only way to earn freedom is by Don Timoteo dying and wishes that he dies. As a way for Don Timoteo's fortune to not fall in hands of his nephew Ricardo or "Antillano" (who has been forced into pirating because he has been accused of killing a pregnant woman), he forces Camila to marry him. Don Timoteo then becomes desperate for a male heir and forces Camila to have sex with him, but he gets a sudden heart attack and dies.

Camila is then left with a great fortune, but there is a clause in the will that states that she can't give the inheritance away or her freedom will be revoked and she'll face eternal slavery. She then becomes loathed by Don Timoteo's sister and blind daughter who swear to take the inheritance from her at any cost. Camila leaves the city with two friends she met while under captivity. She decides to enjoy her liberty and new found fortune. Camila returns to her village to find Santiago married to her sister. Though she gets very mad and surprised, she soon gets over it because there is nothing he can do.

She later buys a house in San Fernando and asks Santiago to help her in fixing some problems with the house. But suspicion makes all the townsfolk think that something is going on with Camila and Santiago. They don't know what to do because Rita, Camila's sister and Santiago's wife is getting mad and jealous. But Santiago can't help but still love Camila and vice versa. Meanwhile, Ricardo has promised his dying mother to reclaim the fortune given to Camila (because Don Timoteo had stolen it from Ricardo's father) and travels to San Fernando with his blind cousin and Aunt. Once Ricardo Arrives at San Fernando he begins to fall in love with Camila, despite his aunt and cousin's hate towards her.
