Renata Guerrico is a very respected federal judge famous for being strict in her application of the law. One day she starts receiving death threats after a suspected criminal is jailed. She falsely accuses a young man by the name of Lucas of making the phone calls. After interrogating him, she is surprised to learn that Lucas's father is Ignacio, her love of her life when she was young. Ignacio picks Lucas up from jail and the former lovers meet after 28 years.

Renata starts reviving terrible moments from her past. At 16 she got pregnant by Ignacio and had a baby who did not survive. She hide this fact from Ignacio who could never understand why Renata left him. Although both are now married to other people, Ignacio gets close to Renata, demanding an explanation for her decision, and tries to revive their love.

Renata is confused, because since she met the virile and sweet young Lucas has felt an irresistible sexual attraction to him, yet she knows that he is old enough to be her son… She refuses to accept her feelings but there is something in them... a deep and terrible mystery that will be revealed as the episodes go by.

Our main characters are star-crossed lovers, who have unmentionable feelings and complex impulses that could take them either to paradise or destruction…
