enfolded
Wrapped in arms
Enfolded means wrapped or enclosed, typically in an embrace or covering.
Arms enfold a person; fog enfolds a valley.
The word carries connotations of protection or intimacy: She sat enfolded in his arms.
Figuratively, something can be enfolded into a larger whole—absorbed or incorporated: The small company was enfolded into the corporation.
