With her powers returned, Adalind was going over everything she felt. Not just about their return. Or her feeling for Nick. But about everything that made up her life now.
Without a doubt. She still loved Nick with her entire being. Adalind was certain she would do anything and everything to keep Nick with her. And of course show him every day how much he meant to her.
She had no reservations about being with a grimm. No this was not anything she had planned, but Adalind knew this was where she belonged.
And that certainly was reinforced by Nick continuing to treat her as if she were the most precious woman in his world.
Nick's affection never wavered. His tenderness and kindness toward her never stopped. There was never a single moment of hesitation whenever he touched her.
In fact, now that they had become lovers. His kisses, touches and other actions of affection tripled in the frequency.
Before he left for work and when he came back home, Nick would always press his lips to Adalind's.
They were always touching each other. Whether they were taking care of Kelly, preparing a meal or looking over books to figure what the latest wesen baddie could be, the two constantly felt the need for contact.
This was of course noticed by the others. Since they would be in the spice shop when doing research.
After a couple of hours of watching Nick constantly place his hand on the small of Adalind's back or play with her hair in some way, Rosalee met the blonde's eyes and mouth the word, "Congratulations."
Adalind understood she was referring to when Adalind had confessed to wanting what the blutbad and fuchsbau had. A strong, steady and loving relationship. And it was obvious that she had what she wanted, with Nick.
If Monroe, Hank or Wu thought it was odd, they kept their opinions to themselves. None of them showed any sign of disgust toward her.
When Adalind brought it up to Nick that evening, Nick had smiled and said, "Man's code. Never insult the woman your friend has obviously chosen. Or you could possibly find yourself with one less friend."
"Oh, women have a different code." Adalind grinned and confessed. "If you think your friend is dating a loser, tell her. So she doesn't waste her time."
Nick smiled back and pulled Adalind into his arms. "And what do you think your friends would say about me?"
She drapes her arms around his neck and whispers, "Don't ever let that one go."
"Wise choice." Nick moans and meets Adalind's lips in a passionate kiss.
Since becoming lovers, they had been intimate as often as they could.
That fact added another point in the column of why Adalind was happy and felt her life was almost perfect.
She just needed her daughter back for her life to be complete.
Nick was doing everything in his power to find Diana. Even having Rosalee notify the wesen council that the Portland grimm would owe them a favor if they found and at least notified him of her whereabouts.
Because there was no doubt Diana was a unique child. Nick could not be sure her age or appearance. All that he could really say was that she was a young hexenbiest showing extraordinary powers for her age.
But by some miracle, that seemed to be enough.
Rosalee got the call and passed it onto Nick. It turned out that a man who was apart of the resistance had gotten Diana from the royals. Miesner had been looking for Adalind, wanting to return her daughter to her, but uncertain of whose side she was on. He had no idea that Adalind had another baby, this one by a grimm and was living with the grimm.
Miesner had never heard of Nick Burkhardt before. That is until a few of the wesen council members, like Alexander, told him some of the extraordinary stories about the unique grimm. A grimm who believed in saving people. A grimm who lead with his heart.
Those stories helped Miesner decide to reveal a location where Adalind could be reunited with her daughter.
They all still had to hide from the royals. So everyone involved had to be discreet.
And there was also the favor the wesen council wanted in return for finding the whereabouts of the special child.
The council wanted to discuss everything in person, requesting that the grimm and his trusted wesen friends fly to Germany, and had a trusted forger create fake documents for Nick, Adalind, Kelly, Monroe and Rosalee.
The council deemed it to dangerous for Sean Renard to enter Europe. Nick and Adalind decided together to not tell him what they were up to till they had Diana safe and sound back in Portland.
Nick told his captain, Hank and Wu that there was something he had to take care of. Something he couldn't tell them about.
Renard had looked unhappy about being left out of whatever was going on, but knew there was nothing he could really do about it, and simply wished Nick good luck.
The five boarded a plane.
Nick and Adalind's aliases had them pose as a married couple. Monroe had been able to find a couple of rings that looked like they matched.
To anyone looking at them. They simply appeared to me two couples, one with a baby, headed out for a vacation.
For the whole plane ride, Nick and Adalind held hands. The hexenbiest squeezing the grimms hand for comfort and reassurance.
Adalind felt near ready to burst with nervousness and excitement. Soon, she would be reunited with her daughter. And then her family would be complete.
