Bienvenue à bord, LadyT ! Welcome on board and on the boards!
What an interesting premise for your story! I never watched this version of Zorro, merely the 1957 series when it was aired on French TV in B&W (and not yet colorized)... but I really like the parallels between the Victoria/Diego and Lois/Clark couples! Victoria seems quite a 1800's Lois Lane and their meeting should be fascinating! Will Lois help Victoria see who is right before her eyes?
Is Tempus masquerading as the man "dressed in Madrid's latest fashion"? The plot really thickens.
Lois&Clark-ement vôtre,

I will like to say that Victoria is the 1820 version of Lois Lane.
for the rest read the story and you will find out your answers
