Wrathion returning the embrace was a surprise, perhaps, but a welcome one.
Still, they shouldn't remain down here. Danger remained in the most unexpected of places, and they shouldn't leave themselves open to another ambush. There was still reluctance in the way he drew back, disentangling himself from the other, but some of the tense lines in his expression had eased significantly once he had.
"But you're right. We should make our way back, before we encounter another such creature." Emphasis on creature, lest Wrathion continue to feel guilty for his actions.
It hadn't been him. Anduin had once been foolish enough to think Wrathion would never hurt him, but he's not so naive as to think one such case should mark Wrathion as a threat forevermore. Some things should be left to rest.
