Yes I think that Xeno's reply seems quite about right.  You've been basically too structuring as your job as GM and I know that it is a big responsibility but if you make sure to keep both a kind and gentle hand on the RP as well as making sure that everything is in order that would be nice.  Just a suggestion here because as soon as I entered the RP I felt like everything was so forced and structured and hard wired.

I can understand that. You're not entirely wrong - I do tend to err on the side of more structuring. But at the same time, I've done my darndest to give players the freedom to carve their own path through the RP, and nobody takes the hint, so I pretty much have to go back to a more structured RP.

Everyone's characters have always been free to do whatever they want. You didn't have to join the party. You didn't have to submit to Xen'Desh's leadership. You can leave the party at any time, and even join the Warlock if you want. I'll support you if you want to do something different. In fact, Kaite almost did just that.

The fact that she didn't is the basis for this RP. That's the big secret of this story, and the true premise behind it all - if you follow the main path laid out for you, you'll find yourself playing the role of the villain. Fighting destiny, the "destiny" I've given you, is where the fun really begins.
