“Do you want children in your arranged marriage?"
Layla frowned, trying to wrap her head around the sudden change of conversation. "That's a very personal question. but, yes. I want to have kids. At least three, so if the first one is a boy and the second is a girl, she won't feel like she's in a competition she can never win because she doesn't have a penis."
Sam lowered his window and drew in a breath of air.
"Shocked you, didn't I? Was it the word penis or the revelation that I would want children with a man I don't love?"
"I'm beginning to realize there is no end to your ability to surprise me."
Layla tightened her grip on the steering wheel. "Why did you ask me about kids? Are you worried I might be pregnant after our almost-kiss? Like some kind of immaculate conception?"
A laugh escaped him, a short chuckle that disappeared almost as quickly as it had come. "Harman is a professional bodybuilder. That means steroids. Prolonged use of anabolic steroids can have significant effects including reduced sperm count, infertility, genital atrophy, erectile dysfunction, and shrunken testicles."
"So you saw my penis and raised me a pair of shrunken testicles? I fold. You win. I dub thee Master of the Game.”
