He certainly didn't choose Narcissa to honor her loyalty. My guess is that he chose her because she was wandless (having given her wand to Draco after his was lost to Harry) and therefore expendable if Harry happened to be alive.

Joey:

Hmmm... Maybe... With Gregorovitch killed and Ollivander gone, wonder what Narcissa did. Yet would she have been in the midst of such a battle without a wand? Not sure if she is that bold. Wouldn't Voldy, the horrible character that he was, have dispensed with her as soon as he found her to be wandless? My guess is Bellatrix might have forced a Snatcher or a "Mudblood" or a "Blood traitor" to part with their wand for Cissy's sake.
