I have been searching without any luck for a mechanic that would compel a character to fight someone to the death. Is there a mechanic for this?

I have dug through the internet and could not find a direct answer to my question. I have an elf wizard who uses a longbow. Am I capable of casting a quickened spell that uses verbal, somatic, and material components while still holding my bow with one hand and then fire my bow the same round? My GM thinks I need both hands free to cast a spell with somatic components. It seems a little over the top that I would have to drop my bow, cast a spell, then pick it back up. Thanks in advance
