I do not have SG in front of me. Harry more or less goes 'Seriously, you showed up as Kringle?' to which Vadderung replies, 'Mab has the right to call on Kringle'. Paraphrashing.

I shall doublecheck when next I am home and remember.  Because I am not recalling anything to lock down that he absolutely has to come when she calls him, but my memory is far from perfect.

raidem:
Kringle is a subject of hers.  She can call on him.  But not on Vadderung.
It kinda goes with the territory of holding that mantle.  He chose to use that mask instead of making a fight for territory.

But, it isn't like Mab is coercing Kringle.  It is in Kringle's interest to assist Mab.

Arjan:

--- Quote ---Kringle winked at me. “The Winter Knight called for me in his official capacity as an agent of the Winter Court. Mab has the right to summon Kringle. If she’d called for Vadderung, I’d have told her to get in line.”
--- End quote ---

The right to summon seems to me as an obligation to come.

Agreed. The relationship itself is more mutual because of who Vadderung is otherwise and i'm sure she bears that in mind when deciding to summon him. But if Mab wants Kringle at the end of the day, she's gonna get Kringle.
