The Obsession of a Billionaire

Evelyn Collins needed her father's debts settled and had no way to settle them. Alfred Prescott, heir to one of the most powerful families in the city, offered to cover all of it on one condition, that she spend three years as his kept woman, a canary in his cage. She agreed with her teeth clenched. By the end of the three years she had fallen for him and had not said so. She left on the day the contract ran out, meaning to go with her dignity. Alfred expected to feel nothing about it and then could not leave her alone. He saw her smiling at other men, the woman who had once been his, and he set about getting her back. Then Cecilia Bennett returned. Evelyn had never been told about her, and once she understood who Cecilia had been to Alfred she took herself for the stand in. She was pregnant by then and started making arrangements to disappear.
