Nickverse!Alopex/Donnie. Donnie finds a friend in Alopex as much as he does an enemy. Her ways are brash, unorthodox, and sometimes just plain wrong. Still, he likes being around her, likes the way she makes him feel. The only problem? His brothers are out to get her. And he can never let them know he knows everything they need to take her down. He can't lose anyone else.

Based on a little prompt on Tumblr that I sent to BlueCladHero for his reaction - 'Splinter has agreed to exchange you for the return of his daughter. (In the hopes of later rescuing you, but you don't know that.)' This is the tragic story that arose from that prompt. Rated M. (Nominated for 2013 Stealthystories AFFAs for Most Spot-on Supporting Character (Karai) & Best Non-Con)

A new neighbor makes April nervous at first, but as she sorts through her feelings about Donnie and Casey, she finds herself longing for a confidante. The new woman has her own dark secrets; will she be the mother figure April longs for, or will she be a threat? Capritello triangle. T for violence & adult themes; Chapter 25 is a little edgy, but I avoid any explicit content. R&R!
