"You should hold it like this," He spoke gently beside her ear.
Then, he placed his hand on her waist.
"What are you-"
"Concentrate, princess," He whispered to her with a cheeky smile.
"You!"
"Concentrate or you'll lose," He warned.
Athena sighed as she concentrated on the moving targets ahead of her. At that moment, she forgot all about the crowd of spectators that were watching them.
At that moment, there were only the two of them.
"Now, shift your weight to this foot. Yes, that's right. Now straighten your torso," He said as he trailed his hand upwards.
"Watch it," She warned him.
He stopped right below her ribcage, never going higher. He moved his hand to her other hand.
"Now pull strong," He said as he curled his fingers over hers.
Together, they pulled the bow string.
"Use the strength in your upper arm, yes perfect."
