A covalent bond is formed when two atoms share electrons.

This could be either a polar covalent bond or a non-polar covalent bond.

Also, a more complex type of covalent bonding is the coordinate bonding.

Does the smaller element get to own the shared atom in a chemical bond?

No, in a chemical bond, atoms share electrons to achieve stability. The sharing of electrons varies depending on the elements involved, and neither atom "owns" the shared electrons. The electrons are shared between the atoms to form a stable bond.
