-His aunts '  death

-Hank ' s rape

-Wu 's eating disorder (unintentionally but still responsible)

-Juliette ' s coma

-Juliette 's memory loss (which had a big toll on Nick)

-Him losing his powers (Which almost killed Monroe and Hank. As well as another female officer) (Also risked Trubels life majorly)

-Juliette becoming a Hexenbiest

-Nick 's almost death due to Juliettes powers

Yeah, that's why I don't see them, ending up together. They've done a lot of things to one another over the years. Things that can be forgiven, but not forgotten.

But Juliette really loved him and still wouldn 't give up her powers for him. Why would Adalind of all people give up her powers for the man whom she so openly hated and took advantage of?

Why Adalind gave up her powers, well I think it comes down to three points:

One, she makes really impulsive choices (its probably her biggest character flaw).

Two, legitemently it was choice between her powers or her own life. And I can see her preferring getting to live but be powerless, over dying before she gets to thirty five.

Three, simply put she's very well aware that no one in the group really likes her, and her life was only so much safer with them than it was with the royals. As such the best thing she can do, is give a display that she's willing to change. What better display is there than making a personal sacrifice?
