{{trope}}
* Abigail Williams from ''[[The Crucible (theatre)|The Crucible]]'' fits this trope like a glove. After her boss John Proctor ends their affair, Abigail jumps at the opportunity to have his wife Elizabeth arrested and executed for witchcraft. {{spoiler|It backfires ''big time''. Elizabeth's pregnancy keeps her from being executed; John takes the blame upon himself and chooses execution over admitting witchcraft and losing his land, which would leave his family homeless.}}
* ''[[The Phantom of the Opera]]'': Erik, the eponymous Phantom, towards Christine.
** To be more specific, Erik captures Christine's lover and gives her the choice of being with Erik forever or watching her lover die. Ironically Christine chooses Erik which snaps him back to sanity and he frees them both to be together.
