My name is Candace Kane, and I have an extraordinary power—I'm an Empath. I have these visions. I see events and feel emotions that aren't mine. Strong emotions have the tendency to latch themselves onto ѕоmеthing that person wаѕ holding or tоuсhing. That's why I'm not particularly eager to touch strange things.
