I wasn't thinking on a relationship so early on (perhaps I should have added it on my prompt?) as I don't think it could work for exactly the same reasons as you say... And while the association between Marcone/Harry starts there, most of the fics I have read don't take place until Harry at least trusts Marcone a little, for these same reasons, and a huge stumbling block is always how much they trust each other.
It can work, but normally, Marcone has to even the field for Harry to not feel threatened. Would it work with Marcone as a woman ina male dominated position, and as so less inclined to leave herself vulnerable to attacks? I don't know.
If it was Marcone/Hendricks their relationship would probably be a friendly one, tough Marcone would probably not like to hear Hendricks described as "Cujo". Mothering? I don't know, perhaps after she sees how harry lives and justifies her care and gifts as a way to keep Chicago safe?
