I can not see Mab allowing it either. An alliance with a marriage is one thing. An alliance with Mab providing livestock for Lara is something else.
But they can try IVF ;D

She might underestimate how much Eb runs on emotion and not on ratio.

Mab is the oldest of the old school, I can't see her letting Harry get away with not... ahem "making it official", but no, I don't think she'd let Lara just eat Harry either.
Doing so would be very bad for this alliance Lara wants after all.
ClintACK:
Mab's little allegory about Goldilocks and the porridge, from the start of Peace Talks, makes more sense now that we know what Lara's first request was.
I'd still love to know what Lara did to earn those favors.
Mira:
I think it is a huge mistake on Mab's part. 1] Further isolate Harry from the White Council, something Eb was afraid of. And guarantee they would try to execute him, and aren't they members of the Accords also? Or is something else a foot because no representatives were present at the first summit post battle. There are already close ties to the White Court so what is the point of a marriage? And does she think she can really prevent Lara from using Harry as her personal sippy cup?
forumghost:
I mean I don't know that Mab's particularly concerned with the White Council's opinion at this point, in particular when they did piss-all to help out in the Battle and then voted to boot Harry in spite of what he just did.
In addition, this makes Harry less vulnerable to the White Council's retaliation, because it makes him a key part of an official alliance between the White Court and the Winter Court, meaning that if they decide to axe him for jaywalking like they obviously want to, they have to weigh that against the risks of fighting the White Court (as well as the Winter Court), since he's now become an important part of Lara's power structure.
As far as Lara eating him is concerned, she's probably not to bothered since Lara killing him outright would be a bad move in this case (yeah, just murder a high ranking member of Mab's court under the pretense of an alliance Lara, see what happens) and if Harry lets himself get thralled he probably isn't worth the effort anyway.
