I'd say respect more than love

"But she was mine.  I cannot forget that you took her from me.  I cannot forgive you that.  Take your life and leave this place"..

Sidhe don't lie.  She will not forget what he did, she will not forgive what he did, and she does want to eat his heart.  If she has the opportunity, meaning if Harry crosses a line that allows her to act, she will follow through.  I doubt Mab thinks any differently about Maeve's death.  Sidhe are not human and human logic does not translate to Fae belief.

From Cold Days:

--- Quote ---"The blame lies with me," Mab said quietly.  "I cared too much."
I realized something then, in that moment when Mab spoke.  She wasn't reacting as she should have been.  Cold rage, seething anger, megalomaniac outrage- any of those would have been something I would have considered utterly within her character.  But there was none of that in her face or voice.
Just . . . regret.  And resolution.

Mab fully anticipated the idea Maeve wouldn't back down, that like a rabid dog she would have to be killed.  But part of her, the part that remains at its core human, hoped in the insanity of desperation and a mother's love for her child, her child could turn back.  Some parents send bad kids to reform schools.  Mab had no other recourse when Maeve made her choice to kill Lily but let the die fall.  Maeve threw it and never realized her own death was about to be set up and her gambit to throw the court into chaos would fail before the night was out as a new Lady of Winter would rise.

Mab is more like the hero of Old Yeller, young Travis who has to put down a beloved family member before more damage could be done.  She took full responsibility for Murphy's actions.  She even guarded Murphy from retribution from Maeve's fae allies who might seek vengeance.

I'm very much curious whether the Redcap is still kicking around with a grudge, or Mab promptly offed him for his role as an enabler / possible Nemesis vector himself.

I'm wondering if Ace got his role by proxy/ascension? I'd like that, and it'd give Harry a bigger pain in the ass than Red himself.

Mr. Death:
Except Harry pretty clearly killed Ace.
