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!
