I don't know that I'd say her desire is necessarily the strongest, just the least inhibited.

Maybe also the most resiliant. Cid shoots her down (gently as possible, but unambiguously) when she suggests running off to form a new nation based on his off-spring. She's clearly disappointed but doesn't take it as badly as I imagine Beta or Gamma reacting to a similar rebuff. I think that explains a good bit of why the non-beastkin members of the Seven Shadows are more circumspect in expressing their desire to mate with Cid.

P.S. Ole was the first to bring up concubines in that conversation, which was probably the deciding factor in him losing his head. Obviously none of the Seven Shadows would like the suggestion that they become a concubine of anyone other than their master, especially with him standing right there.
