Esmerelda Rosewood spends 17 years running away from her nightmare home. Entering Sunset School marks a new start to her life, and she enjoys everything on campus except the weird class schedule.
The campus is divided into day school and night school. Esmerelda, who is assigned to night school, has to adapt to the late schedule and strange classmates. They always stare at her like lions staring at sheep.  
But Esmerelda doesn’t care about that. She meets a boy named Elijah in night school. He is like moonlight illuminating her dark life, and she enjoys every minute spent with him. 
One day, a new transfer student rushes into night school and strikes students there. Finally, Esmerelda discovers the unknown side of her classmates: elegant and gentle but also cruel, fierce, and bloodthirsty.
That includes Elijah.
What should Esmerelda do? Return back to a normal but peaceful life, or stay in the dark with Elijah? It is the most difficult choice Esmerelda has ever made.

The Only Girl at Night Academy

Time seemed to slow down as I stared at my stepfather. He looked very much the same as the last time I saw him with his longish graying hair and stern face. The difference now was that he didn’t look livid as he beat me into a pulp.


I was so shocked that I forgot where I was for a moment. Rosalind was giving me an odd look. I felt panic seize my throat. I never expected to see my stepfather in the city like this. Heck, I expected to never see him again.


The memories from that awful night came rushing back. I thought about the conviction I felt as I violently threw my few belongings into an old duffle bag and literally ran from the house as if I were being chased. And if my stepfather had seen me leave, that probably would have been the case.


I thought that I was rid of him forever as well as the hellish days that he put me through when I was living with him.
