The Male Lead Still Takes What He Wants by Force

Raised in the gutter, they know only how to advance in the dark. So they take what they want, seize what they can, and scheme against others, only to lose the people they love through their reckless cruelty and regret it for the rest of their lives. If they could turn back the clock, and foresee that person’s resolute departure and the bleak loneliness awaiting them, perhaps they might mend their ways... right? As if! The vile don’t know how to let go. They only know how to keep grasping, using a dark kind of love, patient tenderness, and feigned generosity to blind that person into staying of their own free will. 【Volume 1: Director gong x Star shou】 The camera pans inch by inch across the dazzling star, whose acting is second to none. He was born to be the lead, and the man behind the camera can’t take his eyes off him. Framing the star’s every joy and sorrow through the lens is no longer enough. He wants to build a fortress and make the man his star alone. Desire roils within him. Just as he’s about to act, he foresees the future: an immense, empty space, swallowing him whole in the darkness... If a fortress can’t keep him, what about a path to stardom illuminated by the spotlight? 【Volume 2: School bully gong x Class monitor shou】 Provide for his family, get into fights, sleep. In his numb, monotonous life, no one is allowed to get close. But one person insists on coming over, naively offering warmth and care under the pretext of being the class monitor. Light can’t brighten a gutter. It can only be choked to death by it. More than the class monitor’s smiling face, he likes seeing him cry, those beautiful eyes brimming with tears as he begs him, unable to bear it any longer. Just as he’s ready to stain that pure white with darkness, he foresees the future: his image is gone from those dim eyes. He has pushed everyone away, just as he wished, including himself... If the class monitor loves to smile, then, since he’s so pathetic, let him smile only for me. 【Volume 3: Combat machine Alpha x Alpha-disguised-as-Omega colonel】 He’s a combat machine created from the union of an SSS-rank Alpha and an SSS-rank Omega. After a battle leaves his mental strength damaged, he’s put on indefinite leave at home. The colonel is the SSS-rank Omega matched with him, and his former subordinate. That sweet amberwood scent is both intoxicating and repulsive. But since the colonel came to him of his own accord, he must be prepared to be used. After the overwhelming scent of black ebony has thoroughly enveloped the colonel, he foresees the future: even as he’s torn to pieces, he still can’t grasp that cold hand. The heart-rending pain links the future to the present... If he pretends to be gentle and considerate, could he win this person’s heart, and make this person’s world and loyalty belong to him alone? 【Volume 4: Demon-corrupted junior disciple x Gentle senior brother】 Half demon, half immortal, neither demon nor immortal. There’s no place for him on either side, but he doesn’t care. He’ll use his strength to make those ants face reality. But his senior brother is different. The ants still gather around him, even though he’s clearly been defeated by him. Jealousy and other nameless feelings take root in his heart. He wants to drag the noble, untarnished gentleman into the abyss and make him submit at his feet when he has nowhere left to turn. As he gently brushes his hand over his senior brother’s sleeping face, the future appears in his mind’s eye. Covered in filth, his senior brother would rather shatter than bend, defending his heart of the Way to the very end rather than join the demons... The demonic path won’t work. What about the immortal path? If he became the sect leader, could he use “the greater good” as an excuse to demand everything from his senior brother, including his body and his heart?
