   Summary

   James Vega is ordered to guard the disgraced Commander Shepard while she awaits disciplinary action on Earth. Having idolised her for years, James is unprepared for the bond they form during their time together under house arrest. He struggles to reconcile his feelings with duty and loyalty when he later serves under Shepard's command on the Normandy. Things are complicated by Kaidan's return and the weight of an old love amidst the Reaper invasion.

   Begins with the events of Mass Effect: Conviction and references Mass Effect: Paragon Lost. The events of Mass Effect 3 are followed to maintain canon but there is a lot of Shepard/Vega padding and additional Shepard/Alenko drama. Ratings and tags are set for future chapters. I will update these as the fic progresses.
