What is a pair of electrons shared by two atoms in a covalent bond?

By definition, a covalent bond is a type of chemical bond characterized by the sharing of a pair of electrons between two atoms. If it's only one pair of electrons being shared, then it would be a single covalent bond, two pairs of electrons being shared is a double covalent bond, and three pairs of electrons shared would be a triple covalent bond.
