Ada even invokes the trope as things continue to get more complicated. She admits that legally-dead vampires are given a fake identity so that they can live somewhat normal lives, but that is ripped away from them as soon as they turn someone, to discourage them from making more vampires.

* AttackOnTheHeart: to immobilize a vampire you have to impale him/her through the heart... So, whoever attacks Ada usually goes straight for the center of her chest. Curiously, Ada is never attacked with a stake, but instead with a knife or a crossbow.

Bastard Boyfriend has been rehauled into Fetishized Abuser (for then the narrative portrays an abuser as sexually desirable). Otherwise, it's an example of Domestic Abuser. If both people display toxic behaviors, it's Romanticized Abuse. If the romantic partner is an unpleasant person but not outright abusive, then they are just a Jerk Ass.
