Sirius before the Contract

My mother was the strongest wolf I have ever known. She was feared by her enemies and respected by her pack. Other pups would always bully me for being different than them but I knew they were probably just jealous of my mother.

Unlike my mother, their parents are not that strong so they ask mother to be their leader. She was the best wolf in all of our lands. My mother is special because unlike most wolves. She can control shadows and could even enter them to launch surprise attacks on other creatures who wants to claim our land.

I did not mind that other kids bully me because I knew that one day I would grow big and strong just like mother. One day, I was playing with the other pups when a menacing howl was heard on the direction of our territory. Mother's howl then came next after the first menacing howl.
