Captive inside a BL webtoon
"And then they lived happily ever after." But what if the story never ends? What if your escape into fiction becomes your prison? I loved every story-fairy tales, dark romances, BLs. Fiction was my refuge. Until one crash tore me from reality and trapped me inside a BL webtoon called Obsession Royale. No reincarnation. No transmigration. Just me. Erased. Forgotten. Lost in a world where I don't exist. I didn't possess the hero nor the villain or even an NPC. Nor did I reincarnate as a character. I'm a real human stuck in someone else's dark, twisted love triangle. Noah Cecil-the main lead. British charm wrapped in silk and danger. He's obsessed. Jealous. Cold enough to snap my neck but won't. Because I'm his new fixation. Lee Tae-min-the "Lucky Star," sweet and broken yet strong, the only one who smiled at me before the chaos swallowed us whole. I made a promise to my father: I will survive. Even if it means walking through fire, facing obsession, and breaking every rule in this shattered world, a world designed to crush me. In a story about control and obsession, how long until I become the next victim? I'm not supposed to be here. But I am. And I will fight to survive.
