In the year 1519, the Mayan priest, Ahzac, discovers that his daughter, Ixmy, has given herself to the love of a white man; she was destined to be sacrificed as a gift to the gods along with some gifts made of gold and with a black pearl of similar size. The maiden, having avoided her fate, invokes Ahzac's fury, who then invokes a curse upon the black pearl, saying: "Whoever has this pearl in their possession will never be able to know what happiness is!"
In 1987, the investigators Eliseo Bravo and Hernán Lazcano go exploring underwater in the coral reefs of Cozumel and make a surprising discovery: they find the black pearl that was lost for many years at the bottom of the sea. Once the pearl is touched by Hernan, Ahzac's curse takes effect. The pearl wakes the greed in Eliseo, who provokes the death of his partner Hernán, thus leaving Hernán's wife, Analy, and their newborn daughter, Aymar, alone. Aymar later grows into a very beautiful and physically striking girl. Her mother is killed by a jealous Nakuk when she is 19, and she now lives with a good friend of her mother's, who always loved both her and her mother. His name is Capitán Pablo Solis, and he is like a father to Aymar.
Later on, Aymar meets Nicolás Bravo, son of Eliseo Bravo. Immediately, the two of them fall passionately in love with each other. As the story progresses, a selfish, coldhearted, money loving woman known as Maura Duran is introduced. She falls in love with Eliseo's oldest son David, who also falls desperately in love with her. She goes to the hacienda in the name of Karina Rosemberg, a rich heir who's land Eliseo has been planning to get his hands on for quite a long time now. After being brainwashed by the fake Karina, Eliseo immediately does not take a liking to Aymar, and detests the intimate relationship she has with his son.
The real Karina Rosemberg is in a mad house, but is frequently in the loving care of Aymar, who finds her lost on the streets in tartered clothes. One day, the real Karina meets David drunk and in an awful state. She falls in love with him quickly, but the feeling is not immediately mutual for David Bravo. He gradually sees the uniqueness and beauty of the real Karina, after seeing the evil manipulative side of Maura Duran.
Later on, Maura arouses many problems between Aymar and Nicolás. She then pretends that she is pregnant from Nicolás, supporting this claim after being able to lure drunk Nicolás in one night, and sleep with him. However, she is actually pregnant for the youngest of the Bravo's, Leonardo, who also falls in love with Karina after her maliciously seductive actions. Unfortunately, he is killed after a plot set up by Karina and ranch worker, in order to rid of him and any evidence.
Karina and her godmother now seem to have the upper hand in the Bravo estate. Aymar tries to get everyone to believe that she is no longer involved with Nicolás, and is now married to José Miguel. She does this to avoid any problems that might come between her, her baby, and ever so loving Nicolás. Nevertheless, Karina is not satisfied. She now tries on two very dangerous occasions to kill Aymar, after finding out that she also got pregnant for Nicolás after they made love on an island a few months before. Though one of her attempts gets everyone to think she is dead, she is actually alive, in the care of a kind black lady.
During investigation of Aymars death, Nicolás finds out that Aymar was pregnant, and he is crushed. He then makes friendship with now blind José Miguel, who was alos madly in love with Aymar. In the meantime, Karina's godmother is making very large attempts to win Eliseo over, though he does not take much regard because he is mesmerised by the return of the mother of his children.
At the end of the story, Maura and her godmother try to run away after being exposed, but is caught and persecuted by counsellor Nicolás Bravo for fraud and all sorts of other crimes. David and Karina get married, and so does Aymar and Nicolás.
