yes, Sauron was the Leiutenant of Melkor, but before his corruption he was a Miar of Aule. This further explains his prowress in the forging of the rings of power, because Aule was the smith of the gods. After the War of Wrath when the Valar marched on Angband and captured Melkor, Sauron hid lest they find him. And after that, as the Silmarillion says, he followed his master down the same ruinous path into the void.
