Which means she didn't get a nibble, that is what gave her a chance to starve out the Hunger.

--- Quote ---Piecing the bits from Blood Rites and Bigfoot on Campus together I took it that the lack of knowledge of the Hunger means its first feeding is uncontrolled by the host (you can't control that which you don't know you have to control) and that first killing feed gives the demon a hold on the host it wouldn't otherwise have.

No, you don't have control, and that is what happened to Thomas, the victim was dead and he was hooked before he knew.. I seem to remember that Lord Raith was very cagey that way, making sure his kids didn't know so when the Hunger awakens they have no control, then it is too late.

Fcrate:
 To answer the original question:
It looks like a medieval style marriage, Knight to Lady, as arranged by Mab, the knight's queen. Therefore, there won't be any latex, at least not until a heir is conceived, cementing the relationship between the two nations. That said, it'd be foolish to assume that Mab would let her knight - who she invested quite a few years in shaping, and who commands a significant amount of Winter power- become a slave to anyone (else), even an ally.
In Changes, Lea put the demon part of Susan an Martin to sleep. It's not much of a stretch to say that Mab could teach Harry a similar technique, or at least nudge him to obtain the knowledge for himself. This way they'd be able to consumate their marriage, and everybody wins.
I kinda like Lara and Harry as a match. They've always had a bit of chemistry.

Lara prefers biology.

Harry feels a "sweet cold that stole warmth and strength" seeping into him and Inari's eyes are full silver. Clearly, that's the Hunger drawing out a bit of his lifeforce in a more obvious fashion than Thomas ever got while he was nibbling his salon clients.

I still don't think so, simply because both Lara and Thomas seemed to think that if she truly loved the guy she went off with there was an excellent chance that the Hunger would be burnt out.  I don't think there would have been a chance if it had even gotten a taste.  I think that fact that her lips blistered so quickly, Harry was protected and she couldn't feed.  I think there is a fine line, yes, in prep for the feeding the vamp gives pleasure, that makes the victim vulnerable.  It was close, but Harry was still fighting her, poor little puppy Mouse was beside himself.. Had he been full grown Inari would have ended up the victim.
