Which has no connection to what I said? She can't marry. The Lady can't indulge in carnal urges.

Yup, if Harry isn't with any other woman or anyone that would qualify as a lover, it still sticks. I believe that Lara found that out in White Night, it had been four or five years since Susan, and kissing Harry still burned her lips.

Right. But Susan was still alive at that point. I'm sort of presuming that Harry is protected by Karrin, but its a potential loophole ...

Marrying Lara might break it in itself - I'd imagine the vows have supernatural weight.
I am actually surprised that Harry getting married is even a possibility, as the Winter Knight is said to be "consort to the Queens of Winter". They might need to do something special with the vows -- I doubt Harry can swear to "forsake all others".

You assume a monogamous marriage but the Sidhe are old, old style and pre christian. They might not have that clause.
Lara certainly doesn't want it.

I'm not sure if that's entirely correct. Mab told her that Lara had the Queen's permission to court her Knight and Molly was P.O.ed at Lara throughout PT & BG, so it seems to me that she is quite aware of what is required to tie the White Court to Winter. And she's never hidden the fact that she does find Harry not entirely hideous...
