Brave person embraced by another one (4)
I believe the answer is:
hero
'brave person' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'embraced by another one' is the wordplay.
'embraced' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'HERO' can be found hidden inside 'by another one'.
(Other definitions for hero that I've seen before include "Exceptionally courageous person" , "Exemplar" , "Leander's love" , "Courageous man" , "Man of outstanding courage" .)
