Three years older than Draco Malfoy, Monseratt Valois graduated from Hogwarts at twenty with a reputation unlike anyone else’s. She was breathtakingly beautiful, elegant beyond her years, and came from an incredibly wealthy pure-blood family that rivaled many of the Sacred Twenty-Eight.

She wanted someone intelligent, composed, and capable of matching her emotionally.
