The Tethering: A Portent of Crows

Deborah Brandt's beloved Aunt Gena always told her that she was special, a bit different, and would have to live her life unlike other people. Of course, this she disregarded as the ramblings of her lovely but notably eccentric aunt. Although there were the things that Aunt Gena said that seemed true - like Deborah being sensitive to energy shifts, having potentially psychic impressions, and dreaming of a spirit guide - none of it could be real.
But the most ridiculous thing that her Aunt Gena told her before she died is that there is someone special out there for her. She said that he is an extraordinary man who is not only her perfect match but someone who she would learn from so that they could help the world in difficult times. How ridiculous! It sounds like a fairy tale, and no such person exists. Daniel Wren is unique. He has been raised and trained from a young age to hone his psychic gifts.
He lives in a world unimagined by most. And he has been waiting for years to contact his counterpart, soulmate if you will. But the problem is that she is painfully unaware of the type of life that he lives and the life she would be entering into if they came together. His dilemma becomes how best to proceed. How can he win her over and move forward before outside forces take that decision away from him?
