"Maria grabbed Andelbert in an embrace." Something feels a bit awkward with this sentence. And "Maria embraced Andelbert" doesn't fully communicate the love and the fear well enough. Perhaps "Maria seized Andelbert in a quick embrace". Or, "Maria quickly embraced Andelbert". I don't know...what do you think?
It is bit awkward, now that you pointed it out. 🤣 Seized sound too military for me. How about "Maria clutched Andelbert in a strong embrace." "Maria clutched Andelbert in a tight embrace." Or "Maria grasped Andelbert in a strong embrace." Or "Maria tightly clutched Andelbert."
I like clutched better than seized. "Maria clutched Andelbert in a hasty embrace"? What kind of embrace was it? A loving embrace? I feel like we're getting closer, just not there yet. If only I had read romance novels, this might be easier. Would one of your writing collegues have an idea?
