[Bren might fuss at him later, but he'd also see that Essek had it right. That the wolf had recognized the other man as his mate, that Essek was in no danger from the monster that the moon had turned Bren into. Caleb watched all this from his place locked away in endeared amusement.
So when the bindings were released, the wolf sat up slowly, broadly muscled shoulders rolling as he watched Essek settle in against the bed. Bren shifted and moved to crawl along the bed over to where the drowpire had sat himself and flopped down beside him, settling his large lupin head in Essek's lap.
He peeked up at him from this position. Was it really true that Essek loved him enough to accept this monstrous side of him? The wolf wanted to belong and be loved and accepted, wanted to be held by his mate.]
