I Became a Kindergarten Teacher for Monster Babies!

After all the babies went home and the hallways fell silent, Alina stood quietly at the classroom door, letting out a long sigh she had been holding in for hours. Her shoulders slumped slightly, and her fingers brushed through her now-messy hair. It was only her second day here... and it already felt like she had lived a whole week.

From flooded dining halls to baby dragons and bat boys, to a terrifyingly attractive principal who gave her goosebumps just by existing–she had seen it all in one day.

Still, somehow, she had managed.

She gathered her things and walked through the quiet hallways of the academy. Her footsteps echoed softly on the floors. There were no voices, no chatter—just silence.

The kindergarten was oddly empty during the evenings. She had learned that most staff didn’t actually stay here. Only a few lived in the upper floors of the main building—usually staff or night watchmen. The rest of the teachers and workers came in the morning and left before sunset.

As for Alina, she was the only one assigned to live on the edge of the campus, in the small teacher’s house behind the east wing. It was a charming place with an arched roof, flower vines creeping up the walls, and a round door like something from a picture book.

She opened the door and stepped inside. The cozy living room greeted her, and she immediately turned on the light. The soft glow illuminated the small, neat space. She pulled out her phone and noticed the unread notification again—the one she had received during her last class. It was from the principal.

Her thumb hovered before tapping it open.

"Miss Hart. For your own safety, do not leave your residential quarters after sunset. The surrounding forest is heavily warded and unpredictable at night. Do not test its boundaries."

The tone was cold, precise, and slightly terrifying, very much like him.
