Atilio has two sisters. Isabel, the older sister, is a nice woman who raised up Mariana and loves her as a daughter. Marcia, the younger sister, is arrogant and cold-hearted, she has never been in love, until Ignacio Lugo arrives in town. Ignacio is an attractive young man, a journalist, who has arrived under the false name, in search of his roots. Ignacio meets Mariana and falls in love with her, and Mariana also gives him her body and soul.
But Marcia also falls in love with Ignacio and she is dying from
jealousy when she discovers that he and Mariana have married secretly.
Furious and desperate, Marcia tells her brother about the marriage, and
Atilio is determined to kill Ignacio without knowing that he is
sentencing to death his own son, as Ignacio is a fruit of the love
affair he had with Lucrecia, the owner of the restaurant in the town.
Nevertheless, during the accident at the mine, the destiny saves the
life of Ignacio and Atilio is hurt pretty bad. Mariana runs away to the
jungle after she finds out that Atilio killed her previous pretendants.
Mariana is pregnant with Ignacio's child, but she has an accident and
loses her memory. Atilio finds Mariana and takes her to live with him
in another island, where she has her baby. Since she cannot remember
anyhing, Atilio tells her that she is Elisa, his love from the past,
for whom he killed the entire Lugo Navarro household. Later Mariana
recovers her memories from the past, though she doesn't remember her
days in the island. Marcia gets Mariana's baby after Atilio tries to
have him killed, and passes him as her own, forcing Ignacio to marry
her. As time passes, Marcia's twisted desires turn her into a serial
killer, and Atilio pretends he cannot walk in order to hold Mariana to
his side. The story of Mariana is like the legend of the beautiful
woman who always dresses black because of her terrible curse: Mariana
of the night.
