He was a human who was susceptible to her power before. Now, with the mantle and the threat of Mab's offense, Lara just isn't going to risk whammying him, so he's unconsciously letting his guard down around her.

But he was also unconsciously protecting himself against her. Lara was furious in peace talks about it but he didn't even recognize it.

As Thomas said though, procreation is very rare for Whamps. Mab can't be banking too hard on the alliance being founded on an actual child being born of the political marriage, because that might not happen for decades even if they were being intimate.
I kind of like this development, though. I don't see either of them actually developing feelings for the other - I doubt Harry will ever exactly forget watching her get off on disemboweling her cousin, and while Lara would happily jump on sleeping with Harry to manipulate him if it was her own idea, I don't see her either doing feelings or being entirely OK with the idea of Mab choosing her partners for her.
But she's hell on wheels as an ally, and they have a mutual project to save Thomas & Justine. I wouldn't mind seeing the dynamic of holding up a partnership while they're trying to hide from Mab that they aren't actually intimate get kicked around for a while.

While simultaneously trying to convince the Blackstaff that they're not involved at all. Ideally, at the same time. Whacky hijinks ensue.

Has Jim confirmed no more children for Harry?
He's had two with three paramours.

Based on PT, it sounds like Lara might not be able to consciously resist feeding if they get intimate. I'm thinking this is a ploy by Mab to get Harry to do something else by throwing this obstacle in the way.
