A Love That Sinks to the Bone

[Transmigrate into a Book - Obsessive Love - Forced Marriage and Possession] His older brother died in the army, and their clan took advantage of his youth. During the most desperate years of Xie Jingyuan's adolescence, he was beaten and made to eat like a dog. He hated everything around him, including his older brother's wicked fiancee, who was not yet his sister-in-law. But then, one day, he realized she had changed. The madness of old was gone. She no longer beat or scolded him, but instead cared for him deeply. Later, she was the one who stepped forward. While he was still young and had nothing, she stayed by his side as he made his way through the bloody struggle to become emperor. Shen Muxi transmigrates into a book as a vicious, doomed side character, and makes it her mission to stop the second male lead from turning evil. She firmly believes that if she treats him well enough, she can change the story. But as she keeps looking after him, why has the way he looks at her suddenly become so... strange? One day, when he is no longer weak, he catches her after she runs away and locks her inside his golden palace. Cowering in a corner and crying from the pain, Shen Muxi asks, "What will it take for you to let me go?" "We're family. Isn't that what you taught me?" "Family stays together forever... and never parts..." (Note: The male lead is genuinely twisted! At first, he really does want to kill the female lead!)
