There were two reasons. One was that Claire Coffee was pregnant, and they didn't want to do an entire season of shooting around it. The other was that ratings were declining and someone had the not-so-brilliant idea that the numbers could be improved with a "ripped from the headlines" plot arc inspired by the real world ISIL terrorist movement.
Nick-Adalind didn't bother me as much as I initially expected it to, probably because it involved a substantial amount of mutual uncertainty and uneasiness between the characters before they ultimately ended up together.
What really irked me was they way they utterly wasted what was probably the closest thing the series ever got to having an uber-villain (hexenbiest Juliette).
