Hubris

She claimed as her own every victory, every accolade, and every achievement he had won by his own blood, sweat, and tears, and she felt emboldened to take advantage of every opportunity to show off the spoils of her twisted little conquest. Her cap had been set the moment they met and nothing would stand in her way because she was determined to be Mrs. Him, to own him, to possess him, to keep him, to drain him like the vampire she was, until nothing remained but his empty husk and her massive hubris.
