I've settled another argument over who gets to wear the red pajamas and what bedtime stories to read
Finally, I finish tucking the boys in bed, then step back... So, Dev can say good night
Sam Dalton
I like Ms. Schuyler, Dad
Max Dalton
Yeah, can we keep her??
Dev Dalton
We'll see, boys.. Sweet dreams
After that two of us return to the den, Mr Dalton give me an impressed smile
Dev Dalton
No one has ever been to put the boys down like that on the first try. l normally have to step in and negotiate with them
Anna Schuyler
Well, I have something those other nannies didn't had...... Chemistry
I lock eyes for a long moment, the tension simmering in the air between us...... Finally Mr. Dalton chuckles
Dev Dalton
It's true. I haven't interviewed anyone with a chemistry degree
Dev Dalton
Follow me. I want to show you something
I walked behind him past a home office and my eyes linger on what I see inside
Anna Schuyler
(Is that Dev?? Who's with him??)
Anna Schuyler
(I didn't realize he was thrill-seeker.... I have to ask him about it later)
I glance away, and my gaze locks with Mr Dalton's again. I smile sheepishly
Anna Schuyler
Sorry I wasn't trying to snoop ... It just caught my eye
Dev Dalton
No need to apologize.... Would you care to step inside and share and night cap, Ms. Schuyler??
Dev Dalton
After all you are going to take care of boys.... For that we should get to know each other
His eyes remain fixed with mine and I feel myself shifting even closer with his almost trancelike pull
Anna Schuyler
I appreciate the offer, but it's getting late. Maybe another time
Dev Dalton
Then there's just this final thing...
Mr Dalton motions me to follow him further down the hall. He leads me a …..bedroom..??
Images from my dream this morning flood my mind....
Dev Dalton
Ms. Schuyler, did you hear me? If you want the job, it's yours. You can move into your room tomorrow
Anna Schuyler
OMG!! Really???? Thank you.
I impulsively throw my arms around Mr Dalton in an elated hug....
Then I realized I can fill every inch with his body along mines. I flush…😳
Anna Schuyler
(I should indulge just this once)
I savor the brief opportunity to press my body against his inhaling his scent.
Anna Schuyler
I hope you'll excuse me, Mr .Dalton. It's just.... this opportunity means so much to me.
I finally step back, and Mr.Dalton blinks, swallowing hard. He offers me his hand with a gentle smile.
Dev Dalton
Think nothing of it. And, considering we'll be sharing such close quarters, I think you should probably start calling me "Dev"
Dev Dalton
Assuming ,of course, that it's okay if I call you "Anna"?
Anna Schuyler
Of course! I can't wait to move in and get to know you and your beautiful family.... DEV.
The next morning, I have almost finish packing my stuff when I lock eyes with my best friend.. Eilene
Anna Schuyler
Anyways, the money's great, the kids are great and Dev is...great.
Anna Schuyler
It's basically a great way to kill time while I figure out what to do post graduate
Eilene
I get it, the biotech billionaire is 'great'. But how 'Hot' is he??
