All Chapters of Tangled with my Son's Nanny : Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

“911, what’s your emergency?”“Yes, I have a little boy in my class, he’s having a seizure. Could you please get here as soon as possible, he won’t stop shaking!” Elena Brooklyn cried out, her hand trembling as she fell to her knees, watching Thomas foam at the mouth. In the middle of the class, Thomas had complained of feeling weak and not being able to write, and she shrugged it off. Now, here he was, lying on the floor almost lifeless.Although the emergency call operator was still talking to her, she couldn’t fully comprehend a word she said. She was more focused on Thomas and if he was going to be okay. The students in the class exchanged hushed whispers of worry, as the classroom aide pushed them into another class. Soon, the paramedics burst through the door and into the classroom, lifting Thomas’s body onto the stretcher. Elena followed closely behind, hopping into the back of the ambulance as she held onto his hand, rubbing it soothingly with her thumb. An oxygen mask wa

Chapter 3:The soft creaking sound of the ceiling fan filled Elena’s room as she sat cross-legged on her bed, textbooks and lesson plans scattered around her. Normally, planning for the next day’s classes would be enough to occupy her mind, but tonight her thoughts were consumed by the one man she couldn’t stand.Alex.His smug face, his audacious offer played over and over in her head.Elena leaned back against the headboard, sighing deeply.

It was impossible to ignore the way his shy, tired eyes lit up when she’d spoken to him. The memory tugged at her heart.But she wasn’t a nanny. She was a teacher. She ha

Chapter 5The sound of laughter drifted through the house, soft and unexpected. Elena paused in the kitchen, her hands still wet from washing dishes, and tilted her head to listen. It was Thomas, his voice bright and full of life. Alex’s deeper tone joined him, the two of them caught up in a moment that sounded almost... happy.Elena’s chest tightened, conflicted by the warmth spreading through her. She quickly shook it off, focusing back on the sudsy plates in the sink. She wasn’t here to bask in the sound of a happy family; she was here for Thomas. That was it.The door creaked open, and Alex stepped inside. He held an empty glass in one hand, his shirt sleeves rolled up. His gaze landed on her, flicking to the sink and then back to her face.“You didn’t have to do that,” he said, setting the glass on the counter.Elena shrugged, not looking up. “I wasn’t doing anything else.”Silence settled between them, and she thought he might leave. Instead, he moved closer, rolling up his slee
