had nothing to gain from having Voldemort alive. She and her husband 
were no longer valued death eaters. They were terrified.

 She risked her life, and her husband's and son's lives, in the hope 
that Harry really could kill Voldemort and end their misery.

Potioncat:
I haven't seen this idea either, and I think you're right! In fact, I 
think Narcissa had been disatisfied with DE-hood for a while, or she 
wouldn't have gone to Snape for Draco's protection. Before DH, I 
thought she might have insisted on Hogwarts for Draco as a way of 
protecting him from either DEs or the Dark Arts. Turns out he would 
have been safer at Durmstrang.
