The Truth of the Scheme II

He had never thought that when Loki found their safe house that they would get their happy ending.

Well, this is not quite a happy ending to some people. 

But to him it is. 

He had long wanted to get out from the whirlpool of the power struggle in the world. 

The Seven great powers that fought against each other in the dark, the Crime Alliance, and the many other forces that is biding their time in the shadows, ready to come out once these titans duke it out with each other

He never thought he could escape it. 

Because he has the Book of Secrets and he is the Broker. 

He had to keep using the Book of secrets because he knows, that without any value, he would be discarded. 

He was kept under protection by the Shadow Guards because he provides intelligence to them. If not how could the Shadow Guards tolerate him.
