He doesn’t believe that a lowly human is capable of birthing him a royal heir, so he sends his brother in his place.The last thing Coal wants is a human mate. A human. Never. He can’t believe Blaze is using him in this way. Especially when most of the males in their tribe are willing to accept one of these puny females. Not him.
