Calm In The Chaos Book Novels & Stories

No one was up yet, classes hadn’t started, and I’m sure everyone was going to take every opportunity to sleep in while they had the chance. The café was called ‘The Grind.’ I snorted at the name. Not only did it represent ground coffee, but also grinding when studying. The coffee scent hit me and I practically melted. I ordered my usual, a dirty chai latte, and nestled into one of the overstuffed chairs. As soon as I opened the book, I was lost in the story. Even though I had read it before, I was still lost. The details, the characters, everything drew me in, and I couldn’t help but melt when the male main character flirted with the female main character.

“What book are you talking about?” Oh shoot, Deja thought, realizing her slip. Time for some world-class backpedaling. “Oh, uh...” She quickly backpedaled like a pro. “You know, metaphorically speaking. Like, if my life was a book. But it’s not. Obviously. Because that would be crazy. Right?” She shot him her best “I definitely did not just mess up” grin, which, let’s be real, wasn’t fooling anyone. Ren’s lips quirked into a smile, but his eyes remained concerned. “Deja Moreau, you are the most chaotic, confusing, captivating woman I have ever met.”

Elijah's fist brushed past his clothing as the Power of Chaos tore through the air with a piercing shriek, yet it could not touch even a single strand of his hair. Though it was clearly a life-and-death battle, around Carl it felt as relaxed as a leisurely stroll or admiring the moon and breeze. His gaze was calm like the abyss, without the slightest ripple, as if he were watching a misbehaving child rather than facing a Chaos capable of destroying countless worlds. "Impossible... absolutely impossible!" Mystic Vale clenched his fists until his knuckles turned white, the initial ecstasy in his eyes gradually replaced by anxiety.

Callie sat up on the stone, her body stiff and aching, but suddenly everything around her shifted. The chaos that had been roaring in her mind… the fire, the screaming, the blood, it all melted away like fog under the morning sun. What replaced it was something else entirely. Peace. But not the kind that brought comfort. This peace was heavy, oppressive. It pressed down on her chest like a weight she couldn't shake. Everything was dark and quiet. Too quiet.

he says, “you are calmer. That is something.” I grin. “I call it learning not to throw chairs when people annoy me.” He laughs, walking off, and I whisper, “It is true though.” I look around. There is a woman humming to her flowers, a man counting clouds, a nurse chasing a squirrel. We are all strange in our own ways. All survivors of our own minds. For the first time, I do not feel separate from them. I close my notebook and murmur to myself, “So this is peace. Huh. Kind of anticlimactic.”

Golden flecks of blood foam seeped from the corners of his mouth again, and that innocent, boyish face twisted in agony beyond words. His eyes snapped open, but the clarity was gone. In its place burned a crimson red that swallowed everything. It was the first sign of Chaos losing control. Anyone else would have already been destroyed, their body and soul torn apart by the backlash. But the golden heavenly light at Landon's fingertip held firm like an unbreakable shackle, pinning that rampaging force in place without yielding an inch. "Where there is disorder, let there be order. Where there is chaos, let there be stillness. Return to silence. Return to the deep," he spoke in a low voice.

The moments dragged on, the minutes stretching into eternity as we waited for the return of those who had ventured out to face the chaos head-on. For a fleeting while, a fragile sense of calm pervaded the room, as if the world had temporarily suspended its chaos. The room held the remnants of the ordeal—frayed nerves, sweat-slicked brows, and a tension that hung heavy in the air. It was a fragile peace, a respite before the storm's final throes.

Me: Sure, can you pick me up from my aunt's? Collin: Sure. What time? Me: 7? Collin: See you then. When my life is calm, I know there's a storm on its way. That's how it happens, right? You are either in the calm before the storm or right in the eye. And that's where I am, in the eye of the storm. It's calm only for a moment. If I look around me and see my horizons, I will see the swarming chaos encircle me and surround me. I won't be consumed by it quickly, but when the eye passes, it will hit me hard.

“It’s a battle of the mind. A trauma response, he must have retreated into his mind because he didn’t like reality after a traumatic experience.” Dr. Chase grumbles into the phone speaker, he sounds very annoyed that I called but I don’t really mind, his irrational irritation at me is just one of the things i am willing to tolerate, as long as Elijah is fine. Clenching my phone that somehow managed to survive the crash with a lot of cracks, I press it against my ear as I watch the man I love suffer, unable to do anything but make this call.
