why me

30

I was waiting at home for my mate to return, pacing the living room impatiently. I had news for her. There would be a ball in less then two weeks now, and she needed to prepare for it. I was so caught up in my job I had forgotten to give one the command to prepare her. Now I feared megan didn't have enough time. I would personally teach her the most important things and leave the rest to one.
I hear the plane land in the front yard, and I went over to watch megan get out. She was disheveled, the engines still rearing, it was blowing her clothes and hair everywhere. As I watch her I transform myself into my human form, shrinking and morphing, the process was painful but it was worth it if it meant this went better.
'She's too impatient' I thought to myself.
When she made her way inside she stumbled on the door frame. Ow we had some work to do. I prayed to God she had taken some dance classes at the facility.
"Why are you here?" She asked me "it hasn't been a week."
"I have news for you?" I say
"You couldn't tell one?" She asks me
"No. I wanted to tell you personally." I say
"Because I'm going to have to teach you somethings."
She takes her place on her little side of the couch, pulling her feet up and snuggling into a pillow.
"Get on with it then. What's happening now?" She asks
"A ball is coming up. A royal event to celebrate our mating." I say and wait for her response, her emotions never changing.
"I won't go" She simply says.
"You have to" I curtly respond "queens orders"
"And what am I supposed to do? Go to this ball and pretend to be happily mated to you?" She asks, anger raising in her voice.
"Your supposed to go and make an appearance as a new member of the royal family. You only have to stand next to me and nod your head. Do one dance with me." I say. Well there was more to it then that but she'd find out when I began teaching her the necessities.
"Is that all?" She asks "I can do that"
"Stand up" I command
"But I'm so comfy" megan whines.
I hold a hand out and motion for her to stand.
"Well begin with dance lessons" I say
Megan just stares at me dumbfounded. I make another hand gesture, waving my arms in an exaggerated motion.
"Stand up" I command again.
"Ow fine captian bossy pant" megan says getting to her feet finally.
"Now I'll begin watch and mimic." I say
I go through the motions of the most basic of all our dances, moving slowly at first, making sure she sees every motion, then going through it at normal speed. The end had a big finishing move. I landed the hopping motion perfectly with my nimble body. She starts laughing at my performance.
"This is serious" I say
"Then why do you look so silly?" Megan asks
"Ok I'll try one different dance. But this is the last one. I'll show you the female role then the male role. Remeber to mimic me while I do it. Then i want you to show me." I say
I sway to the right then left, my arms in the air where my partner would be. One was playing a popular dance song as I danced. When I was finished I look over to see megan, huffing from the effort of the complicated movements.
"I think I liked the first one better." She says "this one's too much moving"
"It's dancing, there's going to be moving" I say.
"Still i didn't think there'd be so much knee slapping. Do all the mech do is hop and slap body parts?" Megan asked slightly out of breath.
"That is the easiest dance I can think of. One make noted to continue to teach megan the Zora dance." I say
"Yes my prince" she responds.
"Now practice it with me as your partner. I don't care if you step on my toes" I say
"Ok" megan responds and takes my hand, my other hand going to her waist. This is the closet I've been to her since mating her. I take in her delicous scent as i dip her after a spin. She almost immediatly steps on my toe.
"You did that on purpose" I growl out in between steps.
She looks at me innocently "no I didn't" her sweet voice comes out, and I immediatly forgive her.
We dance on for hours, megan quickly improving. Afterwards I go over a few other things she needed to learn, like social etiquette, and the names of my family members and a few high ranking nobles. My watch goes off, a message from headquarters. Work.
"One can teach you the rest" I said and turn to leave.
"Bye" I hear a small voice say.
The first time she had ever bid me farewell.
