On the surface, yes. But Nick's only acquiescing to her up to a point. He's not doing all this simply to be a submissive man-servant; he's indulging her milder Hexenbiest impulses so the more murderous ones don't take hold, which IMO, is much more selfless and heroic. Besides, you'll notice Juliette gave a little ground by agreeing to do the cooking, and even Henrietta told her she can't leech off Nick all the time.
Nick and Juliette are taking it day-by-day...quietly, slowly, privately. Which is all they can really do.
