Nena is thr daughter of a ranchero in Northern Mexico. She and her childhood friend Nestor are in love, but he is the son of a vaquero, a ranch worker and of a lower social class. But before that issue can come to a head, they encounter a creature that attacks Nena and leaves Nestor thinking she is dead. In his grief, he runs away to become an independent vaquero. He returns nine years later to help defend the ranch from the invading Yankees and only then discovers that Nena is alive. Together, they learn that the Yankees are using the vampires as weapons and how to defeat them. But will anyone at the ranch listen to them given their forbidden relationship?
