The principle difference between his King and himself was that Larkspur had very little concept of possession. He knew that the yellow horse was his. Rowan was his. Yet Salsola was owned by Sirius, and less directly, Eris. If Sirius demanded anything, Larkspur would turn it over. This was the rule of the pack. This was how wolves had behaved long before, and in some part of him, that was engrained within. He was a high ranking member of the pack, but he was a member and not a leader. The will of the leader was the will of the pack. To go against this was to go against them all.

Once he was satisfied that the horse had grown used to the weight, he allowed him to slow. He approached the dark colt and undid the weight as Sirius’ voice came from behind. While he did not look at him, it was clear the dark wolf was listening. His ears were back, high and turned to the deep voice of the King. His jaw tightened as he finally stood and guided the young colt back towards the wider pasture. With a slap on the rump he sent the colt off, and then crossed to meet his King. “Eris did not show them to anyone,” he admitted, frowning. “One was…cursed. I thought she might have shown the others to you.” An admittance of his own lack of involvement with these newest children. Eris had been far more picky and less hands on since she had Molca’s help. She did not require him as much, and until the children were able to walk and speak, he could not begin teaching them.
