Then you read Illuminati and it's looking like Malekith is planning on backstabbing Dario (presumably so he does not have to share rulership of all the realms. Dario wants land and power, the same thing Malekith wants, Enchantress just wants Odinson) with the help of Enchantress. They talk like Loki is the one not to be trusted, but they are ALL planning on back stabbing one another. I think he knows they plan to backstab him, but he is somehow going to work with that. He apparently has a plan to save the remaining elves, Jane and himself, presumably in a manner that makes it look like he succeeded in killing Jane, or.... something. It's just a matter of if Jane will trust him enough to let him do it. but if he 'dies' as well during this attempt, I wonder what he stands to gain fro it? He must gain something from this elaborate plan, he's a better person now but he's still not exactly what you'd call altruistic.
