In "The Titan's Curse" by Rick Riordan, the character Zoe instructs the Hunters to begin packing up. As she prepares, Apollo offers to help her with her camping pack, which she sharply refuses, displaying her anger through a fierce glare. This interaction highlights her strong-willed nature and the fierce independence of the Hunters.

Artemis then intervenes, reprimanding Apollo for his behavior, emphasizing the strict boundaries that exist between her Hunters and others. She makes it clear that Apollo must not engage with them in any personal manner, reinforcing her protective authority over Zoe and her group. This moment illustrates the dynamics between the characters and their roles within the story.
