[ For all that Essek was fastidious-- in this moment it did not matter; he did not care if his staff (and yes, friends) saw him in such a state by his mate; it would only impress upon them that this was his mate, his love and that he had been suitably claimed in much the same way that he had asserted his own territory; bite by bite.
He sank gratefully into those arms though he was able to manage a simple concentration spell to keep himself light so that Bren could carry him through effortlessly. The driver opened the door for the both of them, making absolutely no remark and with no betrayal on face of what had been heard in muffled ways (the two of them had been loud enough and without a proper spell to keep noise out? Yeah, there had been some leak through all considered.
His head slipped against that shoulder as his fingers clung lightly into shirt, the sweet scent of his mate's musk enfolding him as Bren carried him through hallways and toward his suite of rooms which he used for sleeping. By extension his workroom was apart of it, but the connecting door into that chamber assuredly would lead to his bedroom. And such a bedroom it was, shrouded in darkness.
It was a room not terribly lived in, kept silent like a mausoleum. He'd never shared it before so it lacked the personal notes that the other areas of Widogast Manor possessed in abundance; it was a lonely room but it was perfectly safe and set up in such a way that the Drowpire could obtain his rest; the first time that anyone other than Caleb had entered this sanctuary.
Once inside those doors, Essek pressed prestidigitation over the both of them so that they could at least be clean, although he was happy to note despite his tiredness, that there was a scent of musk that still permeated them; and he wanted that-- he wanted to fall into Bren's arms tired and with the last thing that assaulted his senses being that of Bren's own scent wrapped around him. ]
The first thing I do is make sure that the lock on the door is secure. Also, there is a secret passage that leads from your room to mine, I never told you because I worried about your safety but if you need to leave for any reason, it is the best way to come and go. [ Caleb had insisted that it be there in case of emergancies, and there was a branching path that led underground to the cellars. ]
