1.) Nick's love for Adalind and their baby son?

2.) Nick's love for Juliette? These are good questions. If I go by the length of time spent together, I would say Juliette probably has the better claim to Nick's love since they were a couple before the pilot and remained a couple for over four years afterwards. But I don't know that I would call what they had, 'true love'. Nick showed very little fondness for Juliette after they parted ways. Juliette became Eve and near the end stated she could never go back. So that shows she had very little fondness for Nick.

Adalind and Nick are a completely different story. I don't mean because I think they had true love. What I mean is that in order to discover what kind of relationship they had, the viewer pretty much has to suspend 4 years of evil and terrible actions in order to get to the heart of this couple. The first example is when Adalind poisoned Juliette into a coma and near death. Regardless of what the viewer thinks of Juliette, there's no denying that Nick had a fondness for her during their time together. Regardless of Nick showing no fondness for her after they parted ways, Nick is portrayed as the kind of guy who has a heart. That kind of thing would not warrant forgiveness. Likewise, Adalind looking past Nick kidnapping Diana is also an unforgiveable act. Neither character was all that charitable.
