She demanded officers wait outside while she put on a bra during the sting in July.

Cops then found the missing teen inside a bedroom wearing just his boxers.

After being taken into the custody of Chesapeake Juvenile Services, the youngster said Watts had promised to run away with him when he turned 17.

The mum-of-two was arrested on August 17 and has been charged with three counts of indecency with a minor over her alleged relations with the teen and his twin brother.

Cops started investigating Watts after receiving an anonymous tip about her alleged sexual encounters with the teens in February, reports Law and Crime.

Authorities said it emerged Watt's husband came home one night that month at around 2am and found her topless on the sofa.

He later told investigators one of the 15-year-old boys was beside her and "pretending to be asleep".

The teen is said to have told his parents he had gone to Watt's home to smoke marijuana before falling asleep on the couch.

His parents told police their sons were regularly at Watts' home.

Police documents allege one of the teens had been having sex with her since June 2022.

Cops say the youngster also confessed that he and Watts were "in love" and that she "was going to divorce her husband and they would get married" when he turned 17,

Authorities allege that the boy ran away from home and was found hiding in Watt's bedroom three weeks later, Wavy reports.

His brother, meanwhile, claimed Watts would invite him over to smoke weed.

The teen alleged she gave him pairs of her underwear and touched him inappropriately - despite him asking her to stop.

The twins' parents and her jilted husband have now filed protective orders against her.

Her husband's order describes a large amount of cash, marijuana and a prepaid cell phone that were reportedly found after her arrest.

She faces up to 30 years in jail if convicted.

Watts is due to appear in court in October.
