Mab's plans with Harry
Mira:
I don't think Marcone ever wanted to marry Mab.. Nor do I think that she'd think he would add enough to her own power for her to marry him.

Yea, that's pretty much where I'm at. Plus, the I don't think the Winter Lady can get married and consummate the marriage before her new husband would become really, really killed.

Minor point, but as far as Mab is concerned, the Alphas probably count as effectively vassals of Harry after following him in the battles at the stone table and against the Fomor. She might temporarily require him to be isolated from all contact as on the island, but trying to break her knight's vassals away from him in particular is highly likely to be against Sidhe nature.
Plus, they're currently acting as bodyguards against all the threats that were previously cowed by not wanting to take on the Council or Ebenezar personally. Finding advantage in removing him from the Council is one thing, but even if she could plot to remove the knight's vassals, decreasing his survivability is bad business.
Avernite:
Any plan that revolves around marrying the Winter Lady seems like... well. I don't think she can without breaking the Mantle. If procreation is against the Mantle, how could formal agreements to procreate be acceptable? I know it's a rather stripped-to-the-bone conception of marriage which rips out some important bits alongside the unimportant, but still.
That said, Mab clearly IS trying to push Molly and Harry apart, but I'm still not sure if that isn't like here trying to murder Harry - she doesn't mean it, she just doesn't believe their relation is useful if it's weak enough to be broken by this kind of shenanigans.
seanham:
I still believe that the marriage does have some positives for Harry. His sex drive has been something he has been fighting against for the last few books, and he (mostly) pushes it down. But using Lara, he can satisfy that drive, enabling him to think more clearly and live a better life.
