History
Daubmann rescued Kant from a would-be public rape and subsequently turned her into a queen of the criminal underworld. He views Kant as his protege and is proud of how far she has come since her rescue. Kant considers Daubmann to be one of the few truly trustworthy men she knows. As such, she does not shy away at his touch. Kant also believes she owes much to Daubmann for rescuing her and giving her a place in his criminal empire. She adores the man but whether romantically or as a father figure, and with the rumours circulating, that part of their relationship is unclear to observers.
