Llovizna is a young, brave, raven haired beauty, who was raised by Marhuanta Sánchez, a former prostitute and a companion of Llovizna's grandfather, Caruachi del Río. Llovizna's biological mother, Caruachi's daughter, Resplandor died immediately after giving her birth. Pío Heres Briceño is the ruthless owner of the steel mill, where Caruachi works and Llovizna's biological father. A tragic accident at the steel mill takes Caruachi's life. However, on his death bed Caruachi reveals to Llovizna that Pío robbed him of his investment in the steel mill 20 years prior, and that Pío is responsible for the death of her mother. This drives Llovizna to get Caruachi's position at the steel mill. There she meets Orinoco Fuego, a handsome and honorable man and they fall in love. But Jesus Ferrer, the chief engineer and Pío's right hand man many years ago was actually Caroní Fuego, Orinoco's older brother. Now he owes all his prestige and loyalty to Pío.
