Reserved and analytical, she is a star chaser on the Slytherin quidditch team and excellent in potions and charms. Is it really surprising that the blood of Merlin, himself, runs through her veins? When Isabella's talents and recklessness lead to her spending an unusual amount of time with her head of house, will they be brought together by their surprising similarities or will Severus's walls and sour disposition become more than Isabella bargained for?
