Xena's POV
Martha's eyes widened in shock before narrowing again. "Logan!" she hissed.
I could see Dad's jaw tighten. "X," he said, turning to me. "Did you complete your chores?"
"Yes, sir. I did them this morning before school." My voice rose unconsciously.
Martha said coldly, "She's lying."
"No, I'm not!" I yelled back. "See?" I pulled out my phone, opened my email, and showed him the time-stamped pictures I'd taken of each completed task. "All done at 6:30 AM, before school."
"Looks like she did it." Dad nodded slightly. "What are you doing this evening?"
"Ama and I are going to run to the pizza place in town and have dinner there," I answered in a cold voice, unsatisfied with how he was handling this.
"Alright, have fun and remember not to be too late," he said flatly.
"By the way, Dad," I added, "the son of Alpha Benedict from the Boneash Pack is coming by the shop tomorrow at five for a custom job on his motorcycle. His name is Ryder."
Dad's eyebrows rose slightly and turned to leave. "I'll stop by to meet him."
Martha clearly wasn't happy about being cut out of the conversation. She followed Dad back inside, already launching into complaints about how I needed to be disciplined.
