Way back in 17th century, the Philippines was ruled by the Spanish Government which wished to have total control over the land. The Malayan, which are the native-born inhabitants of the Philippine islands, were forced to give their properties to the Spanish settlers and become slaves.
Valentina Sanreal, a daughter of a prestigious gobernadorcillo and ecomendero, whom everyone praises and admires. Despite being only an half-Spanish, she possesses the characteristics of perfection- ethereal beauty, unmatched intelligence, and a good heart. She is like an angel in a human figure, the reason why the other señora and señorita, including her stepmother, envy and despise her. Her only wish was to be loved and accepted by her father, but because of a single person- her hopes become more unreachable.
Isabela, an Indio, was born and raised just to become a slave. Her life was already hell, but because of a certain half-Spanish girl, it couldn't get more difficult and messy.
The unending dilemmas and thoughts of uncertainties will test both their strength and love. In the battle for freedom and righteousness, will they fight...
or will choose to escape?
