It hadn't taken long to put his plan into action, to engineer a betrayal. It was disgustingly easy, actually. A guard that was up in the roster to be his guard for the next fortnight. A disguise, a bribe, a weak will and a greedy heart, and all was as Loki expected. The man had never liked him, had always considered Loki to be a blight on the honor and name of the royal family.

And unlike others, who might dare only to speak poorly of him in an undertone, this man was willing to kill.

It'd come surprisingly close, actually, for all that Loki himself the one who had orchestrated the attack. He hadn't expected it to come when it did, and the guard did have two weeks with which to work. So it's only due to Loki's actual reflexes and instinctive spell-casting that he'd avoided the worst of the potentially fatal wounds.

As he waited in the Healing Wing, Eir working her magic over him, he'd fought with his father, Thor and their mother both supporting Loki in his demands. This, at least, was as he planned. And within a night, James was once again the captain of Loki's personal guard.
