[ Essek could hear it even if he did not see it. It was absolutely heart-wrenching in it's absolution and with each snap and crack, his body convulsed while he fought down the instinct to run to the werewolf, to wrap his arms around him and to tell him it was alright. The moment that he heard the bed squeeze with the depressed weight, he turned around to see the ginger form laying there, and then his eyes softened and he started toward the bed, but only a few faltering steps. ]
Bren..?
[ Uncertainty to his voice, wondering if the wolf would recognize him as mate as they were, as they had been in another life. Then as he took another step forward, his mouth and the words that formed from them said even more firmly as it gained traction. ]
M'hrandii?
[ Mate in undercommon, and something that Caleb had been to him, they'd been linked by the rules of the potent old magic; while Essek had told the other man that the term meant 'wedded one', it was so much deeper than that, it denoted a connection of the soul on a molecular level and how it transcended the bonds of time and space. More apt now than ever because Caleb Widogast had returned to him in the form of Bren Ermendrud. ]
