You know those stories where there is this grumpy warrior/badass guy who has to take care of a child against their will?
I'm guessing Lone Wolf and Cup is the earliest example of this trope, but I don't know for certain.
My question is what other stories like that are out there but with women as the lone wolf? The only examples that come to mind are Kate from... well... Kate (2021), Sam from Close (2019) and good old Ellen Ripley in Aliens.
Please share the female characters you know that are like them!

Alice, even if I’m not here… I’m always with you… and Daddy. I don’t think you understand how much I– I just wanted to be around and see you grow up. No matter what happens… my eyes are always on you. And my heart… beats with you, baby. I love you so much. More than you can ever imagine. [in Swedish] My love.
