Plot[edit]

In the town of San Rafael del Limón, the Paredes and Sarmiento are wealthy landowner families caught in an eternal war and struggle. Abraham Paredes is a selfish, greedy womanizer who only married once, but had children with several women: First, with a mute named Belinda de Sousa with whom he had a son, his first born Aarón De Sousa, second he had Anastasius who suffers from epilepsy after falling off a horse when he was a child. Lastly, Damian, Derián and Eloisa who were born from his marriage with the deceased Eloísa who died at childbirth.

On the other hand, Numa Pompilio Sarmiento is the head of the other family. His children and nephews support him in his fight against the Paredes. Mauricio, the eldest, is full of vengeance just like his father, together with his cousin Numa Pompilio. His youngest son Abelardo arrives into the town from the city, and falls madly in love with Eloisa Paredes. Yomira, the only daughter of Numa Pompilio, suffers from the memory of her former love Damián Paredes who arrives to the town from the capital transformed into a priest, adding conflict to the relationship.

In the middle of this conflict appears Corazón Silvestre, a beautiful peasant who has learnt to survive the harshness of the Zulian plains. When Aaron meets her, he is attracted to her personality and decides to transform her rebel heart to turn her into a lady. But he discovers he cannot marry her since he is engaged to marry Maria Angélica Guillén, a beautiful, wealthy, refined woman from Maracaibo who will become a cruel rival for Corazón.[5]
