Milady

The most sensual of villains, Milady de Winter is a merciless assassin with a fierce grip on Athos' heart.

Brought up in poverty, ambitious Milady found brief happiness as Athos’ wife before tragedy made them mortal enemies – drawing the former lovers into a vengeful game of cat and mouse that ended only when Milady fled to England, alone.

Four years later she crashes back into Athos’ life, as charming as ever and ruthlessly prepared to cause collateral damage in pursuit of what she wants.
