El poco común sol inglés brillaba sobre ella de tal manera, que cerró los ojos e inclinó la cabeza hacia atrás para dejar que calentara su rostro. El aroma de las hierbas y de las flores de los manzanos perfumaba el aire. No todo era malo en Inglaterra, decidio. Quizas pudiera casarse con un ingles algun dia, un hombre como el que habia entrado a caballo en Lonsdale esa mañana. Abrio los ojos y volvio al trabajo con energias renovadas. Ella no era una doncella inglesa consentida que pudiera andar holgazaneando por el jardin, aunque su cabeza estuviera llena de fantasiosas ideas. Desde que habia visto al baron de Montague entrando a caballo en la fortaleza, se habia pasado una buena parte del dia intentando olvidarlo. Su curiosidad la habia metido en problemas otra vez. Sus pensamientos no la acosarian si esa mañana se hubiera ocupado de sus tareas como deberia haber hecho. Pero habia oido hablar tanto del baron de Montague que deseaba verlo aunque fuera solo un momento. Por todo lo que habia oido explicar a su tio sobre el ilustre visitante, Claudia esperaba encontrarse con un hombre de mediana edad, gordo y lleno de joyas. Sin embargo, el baron de Montague no debia de tener mas de treinta años. La armadura seguramente lo hacia parecer mas imponente de lo que seria sin ella. Pero, cuando se quito el yelmo, Claudia se dio cuenta de que la armadura no era mas que el reflejo de lo que se escondia bajo ella. Incluso desde la distancia a la que se encontraba, sabia que era el hombre mas apuesto que habia visto en su vida.
