Carroll Shelby Jan Harrison

Harrison was just an ordinary guy, until he wasn’t. Reborn in a world teeming with magic, knights, and ancient rivalries, he wakes up as the illegitimate son of a baron. Here, they call him “Harry,” but he knows he’s still Harrison from another world. And lodged deep within his mind is a strange coin, humming with untapped energy, feeding off every action he takes, every ripple he creates in this foreign realm. This isn’t just any coin. Passed down through his family for generations, the coin had been a mystery, an old relic Harrison’s grandfather picked up during World War II in Germany. He thought it was just a worn piece of metal with some faded Roman numerals, a quirky keepsake with possible historic value. But now, he realizes it’s far more than that. Since his arrival in this new world, the numbers have shifted, and the coin pulses like a heartbeat, brimming with a strange, undeniable power. Harrison names it the 'Simulation Coin.' The Simulation Coin grants him the ability to warp reality itself, to traverse worlds, and even shape them as he sees fit. The more he influences his surroundings, the more power he gathers, feeding the coin and deepening its bond with him. With this newfound ability, Harrison discovers he can do more than survive in this new world, he can rule it.

In der Zwischenzeit sollte ihre bevorzugte jüngere Schwester Michelle Xavier, den älteren Bruder, heiraten, der ein CEO war. Durch einen Fehler im Rathaus wurden jedoch die Namen der beiden in ihren Heiratsurkunden vertauscht. "Was soll das?! Wie kannst du mit Xavier Wallace verheiratet sein?" "Du bekommst weder Essen noch Wasser, bis du die Scheidungspapiere unterschreibst!" Um noch mehr Öl ins Feuer zu gießen, verstarb das alte Ehepaar Harrison und hinterließ sein gesamtes Vermögen Anastasia und nicht dem Rest der Familie. Das brachte die Harrisons an den Rand ihrer Belastbarkeit. Um ein friedliches Leben zu führen, war Anastasia bereit, auf ihr Erbe zu verzichten und die Familie zu verlassen, aber die Harrisons hatten andere Pläne. Sie wollten sie loswerden. Und zwar für immer. Durch einen glücklichen Zufall wurde Anastasia jedoch von ihrem neuen Ehemann Xavier gefunden, bevor es ihrer Familie gelang. Entschlossen, sich zu rächen, schloss sie einen Deal mit Xavier. "Bleib meine Frau und ich werde dir helfen, dich zu rächen!"

Will Mandy and Harrison find their way back to one another or will they find love in other arms? Only time shall tell.

Anastasia Harrison, a young woman abused by her cruel family, thought her life was over when they forced her to marry Richard, the sleazy black sheep of the wealthy Wallace family. Meanwhile, her favored younger sister, Michelle, was set to marry Xavier, the elder brother, who was a CEO. Yet, an error at city hall ended up swapping their names on their respective marriage certificates. "What is this?! How are you married to Xavier Wallace?" "You're not getting any food or water until you sign the divorce papers!" To add fuel to the fire, the old Mr. and Mrs. Harrison passed away, leaving all their assets to Anastasia and not the rest of the family. This drove the Harrisons to their breaking point. To trade for a peaceful life, Anastasia was willing to leave her inheritance and leave the family, but the Harrisons had other plans in mind. They wanted to get rid of her. Permanently. However, it was by a stroke of luck that Anastasia was found by her new husband, Xavier, before her family succeeded. Determined to get her revenge, she struck a deal with Xavier. "Continue to be my wife and I will help you get your revenge!"
