Marie asked Sherrilyn Kenyon:

If Nick has seen himself kill Jared, like he told Ash, does that mean Jared doesn't really balance him?

Sherrilyn Kenyon Yes, they are "supposed" to balance. The whole series is about the fact that the balance can be broken and tilt to one side. And when it does, it knocks everything out of whack. You have to maintain the balance. It doesn't mean that there is always an automatic regression to the mean. It simply means that if one side takes control, we're in deep trouble. Jared isn't so much his balance, as he is the stop gap. He's supposed to be the one who can kill the Malachai, but the Malachai has grown stronger with every generation. Jared hasn't, and that is becoming a problem, too. Hugs!
