Stealing Older Sister

Ancient Romance Premise: To My Immortal Brother. Fake siblings + eunuch. Please add it to your collection; blurb at the very end

[Amnesia trope | Possessive pursuit | Fake-sibling age-gap romance, younger man | The sickly younger brother's dark, obsessive love]

When Shen Yao woke from a dream, it was her wedding night. The young man lying beside her was elegant, handsome, and dashing.

He told her gently, "I'm your husband."

Still, everything around her seemed a little strange. For example:

The mansion stayed lit all night. Every object was arranged in perfect, precise order. Servants who shouted during the day would vanish the next morning.

And her undergarments kept going missing from time to time.

But her husband was handsome and considerate.

He glanced at the hem of her skirt and told her to lift it herself. "Be good. It wouldn't be easy to apply the medicine yourself. Let me help."

Shen Yao refused to take her medicine, her face cold, and wouldn't admit she was afraid of the bitter taste.

He smiled, drank half of it, then held the bowl to her lips. "Be good. I'll drink it with you."

When things got heated under the covers, her husband blurted out a joke: "Sister, it hurts. Sister, comfort me."

Shen Yao: "..."

She was the one who hurt more.

Their days went on like this until, one day, Shen Yao remembered everything. She looked at the young man, still smiling gently, and asked, "Little brother, have you had enough fun?"

She was sick of being deceived and wanted to leave at once.

Who could have guessed that he would lock her up and pin her to the bed, his eyes bloodshot as he coaxed her with a deranged smile? "Sister, if you don't want them to die, then stop making a fuss. Be good."

The male lead's blurb:

From the first day he entered the Shen family, Song Yan knew his sister didn't like having him suddenly thrust into her life.

But that was all right. She was clever, yet terribly naive, and he was especially good at pretending to be a normal, well-behaved child.

Later, when disaster struck the Shen family, he thought he would be abandoned. Instead, he watched his sister take his hand and smile bravely. "Xiao Yan, don't be afraid. I'll protect you."

They fled together and depended on each other for survival. She was the most important person in his life, his only light.

But he no longer wanted to be her little brother.

That winter, he finally climbed over a mountain of corpses, drenched in blood, and ascended the throne. Yet when he saw his sister about to marry, the smile on her face was more glaring than anything he had ever seen.

Later, as he watched Shen Yao, tears streaking her face, drive into her own chest the hairpin he had carved from his little toe bone, he still smiled. "My sister belongs to me alone."

Both leads are each other's first and only, happy ending.

#The male lead is extremely, extremely twisted and obsessive

#The early chapters focus on everyday life during the amnesia and the male lead's dark scheming; later, he turns obsessive and forcibly pursues her

#No blood relation. No romance while they remain siblings. Two-year age gap

Blurb for To My Immortal Brother:

[Sunny princess with a brother complex x dark eunuch with a sister complex]

The year the princess was to choose a husband, Wen Huan reunited with the brother who had raised her. But he stood among the palace eunuchs, deferential and submissive, cold and distant.

Only two thoughts remained in her mind:

How had her brother become a eunuch?

She had to find her immortal brother again.

She found the jade token that proved his identity, but he said, "Shen Huaian died long ago. There is only An Fu in this world."

Unable to resist her longing for him, she ordered him to attend her in her chambers. Reeking of wine, she clung to him and searched for his lips.

He remained unmoved until her eyes were red from crying. Then he gently coaxed her, helplessly: "Be good, little sister. Get some sleep. When you wake tomorrow, you'll still be the most noble princess, and one day you'll have the perfect prince consort by your side."

She still wouldn't let him go, insisting, "But you raised me. I was born to belong to you!"

-

The year he and his sister were separated, he told her, "I'll always be your brother. Once I pass the imperial exams, I'll come find you in Chang'an."

Years later, they reunited. He was a lowly eunuch, unworthy of her, and watched as one man after another tried to approach her: a flirtatious performer, a smooth-talking young noble, and a foreign prince with a dopey look on his face.

Later, the performer was scared off, the young noble was strangled, and the foreign prince was tricked into leaving.

But he was the one who had insisted they keep their distance...

*One-on-one romance, both leads are each other's first and only, happy ending. The male lead is a real eunuch. No blood relation.
