# 1. The Passion
The series premier introduced us to Aurelio Casillas, a powerful man with many shady business dealings, who is also something of a lady`s man. While Casillas is engaged to Ximena, he is also having a secret affair with Monica, a woman with ties to the Robles crime family. Casillas finds himself in a hairy situation when his lover tries to take him out and a shootout ensues that ends with Casillas`s daughter Rutilia being shot. How will it all play out? You`ll have to keep watching to find out.
# 2. The Love
Despite Aurelio`s unfaithful ways, it`s clear how much he loves his family, and how far he`ll go to protect Ximena. As we wait with bated breath for their wedding day, we`ll first have to see what happens to Rutilia, and what the Robles clan has up their sleeves next! Watch this space for more.
# 3. The Revenge
On a quest for vengeance, police officer, Marco Mejia exposes Aurelio and his life of crime. Why? It was Aurelio who killed Marco`s father, which is why he`s so motivated to catch him.
