Princess That — who has never been given a proper name — has suffered abuse and died young in each of her previous lives, only to be sent back to the past to try again. In her third loop, she restarts as a three-year-old and discovers that the imperial realm's guardian deity, the Golden Dragon, has taken notice of her. Even the legendary ultra-fluffy Flame Tiger Ryuho latches onto her, and slowly her previously cold-blooded emperor father begins to change.

Angelina is a determined, warm-hearted girl who approaches each new loop with quiet resilience rather than bitterness. She knows more than those around her but chooses kindness and connection over revenge. Her bond with the Flame Tiger Ryuho is the emotional centrepiece of the series.

Across three volumes, Angelina (the name she earns this loop) builds relationships with mythical creatures, her crown prince brother, a mysterious foreign child named Hisame, and her father the Emperor, while uncovering the secret behind her repeated loops and the curse that has plagued her family.
