Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

109 THE FRONT OR THE BACK?

In the end, Bai Chen was still holding the cold bun in his hand as he lost his appetite after Wu Jinhai said that they would hunt some beasts for their dinner later.

‘Who wants to eat something with disgusting black blood that smells like poop in its body? Even if I’m a werewolf now, there’s no way I would eat something that smells like dung. I believe that all beasts are not edible,’ Bai Chen pouted as he insisted that he would choose to beg his stomach for patience instead of eating the disgusting beast.

When the sun had completely lost its light, Wu Jinhai finally announced that he had found the perfect place to rest tonight. It turned out to be a cave, and Bai Chen could see it from afar with his pair of blue eyes.

Bai Chen only realized tonight that he could see his surroundings even if there were no torches in the forest. When he lived in his palace, he didn’t even want to blow out the candles at night, so he never knew that his blue eyes could see in the dark.

A pair of blue eyes glittered beautifully to defeat the darkness, and Bai Chen thought that he was no different from a cat now. ‘Wait. Did I just think that I’m no different from a cat when I’m a werewolf now?’ He immediately corrected himself when he realized his foolishness.

Bai Chen could see well in the dark, but Wu Jinhai was different from him. The Prince of Wu Li was only a human, so the man needed to use a wooden stick and light it with fire to turn it into a torch.

The man also had to make fire traditionally, and Bai Chen looked amazed when Wu Jinhai managed to create fire by brushing two stones together.

He remembered when he went to a camp in the forest when he was younger in his previous life. He had tried to make a fire using the same method as Wu Jinhai, but it was a huge failure for him.

‘It might take some talent to make fire using that method,’ he thought as he glanced at the other man walking next to him.

.....

“We can rest in the cave tonight. I also used the cave when I participated in the event last year, and the cave was safe,” Wu Jinhai spoke again as he continued walking towards the cave.

Bai Chen secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He did need a safe place to rest and hide tonight, and knowing that there was still a safe place in the Forbidden Forest, he was somehow happy.

However, he then realized something as he immediately asked the taller man, “Why is this cave so special? I noticed that there were several other caves in this forest when we walked around the forest before, but you insisted on choosing this cave. Is it because there are no beasts in the cave?”

The Werewolf Prince refused to act stupid in front of the Prince of Wu Li, and that was why he voiced his assumption after asking the man. He assumed that he wasn’t that stupid, so he tried to relate the man’s earlier statement to how the man insisted on choosing the cave.

“You could say so,” replied the black-haired Prince. “If it can make you feel safe, then you can keep thinking that I chose that cave because there are no beasts in it. After all, I know that you fear beasts the most.”

It was an ambiguous answer that did not satisfy Bai Chen. ‘Is it too difficult for him to give me a direct answer? Does he think he’ll look cool if he keeps acting mysterious like that?’ He couldn’t help but curse the man secretly in his heart, but he decided to ignore the man instead of responding to him verbally.

The two of them continued walking with Wu Jinhai continuing to hold the torch, and they finally arrived in front of the cave. The cave was quite large, but the entrance was only large enough for one person to enter. Perhaps that was the reason why Wu Jinhai was convinced that the cave was a safe place to rest.

Bai Chen still remembered how big the giant spider was, and if the dangerous beasts in the Forbidden Forest were as large as the spider, then they would not be able to enter the cave.

The two of them didn’t immediately enter the cave, and instead, they looked at the cave with something on their minds.

But then Wu Jinhai turned to Bai Chen before asking, “The entrance and passage are very narrow, so we can’t walk together to enter the cave. Do you want to walk in front or behind?”

Bai Chen turned to Wu Jinhai, and he realized that neither the front nor the back was a good choice. If he chose to be at the front, he would have to take the risk if there would be danger ahead of them, and if he chose to stay behind, it was also possible that they would be attacked from behind.

If there was an option to stay in the middle, then Bai Chen would surely choose the option, but unfortunately, he was only cooperating with Wu Jinhai now, so there were only two options for him.

“I’ll walk behind you,” Bai Chen decided.

Maybe he sounded like a loser, and maybe he really was. Even if walking behind Wu Jinhai could also be dangerous, he still chose that option because he wasn’t ready to lead the way to the cave yet.

“Alright,” replied Wu Jinhai. “I’ll lead the way, but you’d better not make any noise when we enter the cave. We don’t know if there’s anything in the cave or not.”

Bai Chen swallowed nervously. Wu Jinhai said that the cave was safe to hide, but the man did not say that there was no one in the cave.

The Werewolf Prince also couldn’t confirm that all the beasts were the same size as the giant spider, so if there were any smaller beasts, they might be able to get into the cave.

Bai Chen finally nodded his head in response to Wu Jinhai’s statement, and he immediately placed himself behind the taller man while using his free hand to grip the side of Wu Jinhai’s robes.

Wu Jinhai noticed his movements, and he smiled behind his golden mask. He suddenly threw his torch on the ground before setting foot on it, and Bai Chen widened his eyes at the sight.

“Why did you throw away your torch?” Bai Chen asked from behind Wu Jinhai.

Without turning to Bai Chen, Wu Jinhai replied, “If someone were in the cave, the fire would be easily seen by them, so we shouldn’t take any risk. You don’t have to worry because I can lead the way into the cave using my instincts.”

Bai Chen was actually worried to the point that he tightened his grip on Wu Jinhai’s robes, but when he thought about it again, perhaps he should remain calm because he knew that Wu Jinhai was a strong person.

Wu Jinhai could even freeze the giant spider with ease, and perhaps the man would be able to fight the beasts in the forest with such an ability. That was why Bai Chen remained silent as Wu Jinhai started walking toward the cave entrance.

The entrance was indeed very narrow, and Bai Chen’s shoulder almost touched the cave wall at his side. Fortunately, he had narrow shoulders, so he could avoid the friction between his shoulders and the cave wall.

The situation was different with Wu Jinhai who had wider shoulders. With his pair of blue eyes, Bai Chen could see how the man’s broad shoulders were touching the cave walls, and he felt bad about it.

They walked through the narrow passage, but then Wu Jinhai suddenly stopped walking, causing Bai Chen to imitate the action as he felt his heart pounding even faster.

As he stared at Wu Jinhai’s back from behind, Bai Chen knew that the man’s body was getting tenser and tenser as the two stopped walking, and Bai Chen couldn’t help but think that the cave wasn’t as safe as Wu Jinhai thought. There might be danger in the cave, and that was why Wu Jinhai suddenly stopped his steps.

But then his ears heard some voices coming from inside the cave. He thought the voices belonged to some beasts, but when he furrowed his brows as he tried to identify the voices further, he could tell that they belonged to some people.

He used his sharp ears to listen to the voices, and he noticed that there were two voices, and they seemed to belong to a man and a woman.

The voices sounded like their owners were panting, but Bai Chen felt that something was wrong with the voices.

When the realization came to him, Bai Chen immediately widened his blue eyes in surprise. ‘Isn’t that... a moan? Two people have sex in the cave?’
