The nuhn is the only person whose role is polyamorous, everyone else simply must accept that he cannot greedily restrict himself to a single mate when siring more children is in the tribe's agenda.
K'mih doesn't have to have a shallow form of love nor a shallow perception of love, she must simply decide if she can love the current nuhn - and if not, then not have a relationship at all. The only thing I'd recommend is for her to perhaps have an unclear idea of what love is supposed to be since it probably won't be something that is actively taught though at the same time not something hidden away.
Basically, she is not told who she has to love, she is merely given a single option(until the nuhn title shifts) and it's her choice whether to accept it or not - and that is only to say if love is necessary for her or not, which understandably, you want it to be. Some women will abide by duty, others by the desire to have a child and others again out of attraction.

After thinking, I have the impression that the harem structure of the miqo'te (which sounds like mere business devoid of any sort of romance) is unrelated to "polyamory".
(I must say that I'm not a fan of neither harems and polyamory, but I won't go into details because it's not really my business).
