In his eyes, Melinda was like an angel to who he would be glad to tear wings; she was like snow, so white that the impulse to dirty her was unstoppable; she was like the apple on the highest branch, the one to receive more than the others the sunlight and the sweeter to eat.

Laura Finch was just your average Slytherin: prideful, ambitious, and eager to make her way in the world. She didn't know her true identity. She didn't know the role fate would have her play.
