Grayson doesn't want a child between them. He even wonders why he even said such a thing as his rights as those words came out of his own mouth. He doesn't know what he's feeling because he hasn't felt hardly anything before.
What he really wants is to be exclusive with Dane. A "shortcut" to that is having a baby. If it hadn't been brought up by that woman, Grayson wouldn't have thought about it. He might have asked, "Is it really so horrible of a thought of having a child with me that you wouldn't hesitate to take contraception?" But he was there to find out more about Dane to make himself more special.
He also is getting super pissed off with how nonchalant Dane is about his own life. He feels no one else cares and it's shattering the rules of society he was taught to live by. The pregnancy argument was along this vein as well, since Grayson puts Dane on the "worthy" tier. He doesn't want him to get hurt, to think of his own life as expendable because it all makes him seem like a piece of garbage to him. The man treats his own family like toys sometimes so others are mainly NPCs to him. For someone he wants to say they want to be less than an NPC, it is driving him nuts.
I do believe Dane is his fated partner because no one else could make him think and feel like he is now. People say they come alive when they first met or whenever they see their partner, after all. For Grayson, he's being brought down into the mud like the rest of us. I am happy to see him crash and burn.
And on the same vein, Dane, sweetie-pie, please go to therapy. You have shit to unpack. Grayson's obsessive behavior should drive you to do at least a few sessions before getting into why you can't form lasting social ties outside of your coworkers (which you're likely only okay with since you work a job that could end you any day.)
