Usually bold lines are referring to the atoms that point towards us and if that being the case we should have four bonds towards us but the literature shows only three lines or I am misunderstanding something here.

It is constrained by ring size. Building a model will make this apparent. The reason that geometrical isomerism is possible in cyclic molecules (e.g. cis 1,2-dimethylcyclohexane and trans 1,2-dimethylcyclohexane) is because rotation to interconvert these molecules is impossible without destroying the ring.

Once the ring gets large enough (8+) such interconversions become possible.
