Formidable Eyes (ข่มขลัง) is a supernatural GL romance novel by Luxurious.W (ลักซ์ชูเรียส.w). The complete novel follows Pheem, a police officer, and Bulan, a spiritual master who practices ancient rituals. As they work together to investigate mysterious cases involving dark magic, their relationship grows from suspicion into love. It was adapted into the same-titled Thai GL drama Khom Khlang (ข่มขลัง), premiering on September 7, 2026, starring Bint Sireethorn and Pui Nuttanicha.

“Who is Mae Kru Bulan?” A mysterious woman arrives at Bulan’s school with a serious request, setting the story in motion. Known throughout Tak province for her knowledge of white magic, Sak Yant, Long Na, and ancient rituals, Bulan is a spiritual master whose skills have earned her both respect and fear. Her school is filled with ritual objects, sacred masks, offerings, incense, and symbols connected to traditional magic, creating a supernatural world where personal beliefs and hidden powers shape everyday life.
As the investigation develops, charm, desire, superstition, spiritual power, and unexplained events become increasingly intertwined. The story moves between police work, ritual practices, strange encounters, and the emotional tension growing between its two protagonists. Bulan’s knowledge of sorcery and her strict moral principles contrast with Pheem’s direct and determined personality, giving their relationship plenty of friction as trust gradually replaces suspicion.
The chapter list follows their developing story through moments involving coincidence, anger, trance, soulmate connections, vile sorcery, premonition, promises, divine power, and attempts to drive off evil spirits. These supernatural elements are closely tied to the characters’ emotions, making the romance feel inseparable from the mysteries they are trying to uncover. The story was adapted into the Thai GL drama Khom Khlang (ข่มขลัง), which premiered on September 7, 2026, starring Bint Sireethorn and Pui Nuttanicha.

Author Note

Greetings, dear readers. I'm delighted and honored to meet you here. If this is our first encounter, it means fate has given us the chance to share some wonderful memories together and to get to know each other more deeply.

My name is L.W.

My novels often stem from words that deeply affect the mind, both positively and negatively. They inspire me to start anew or even teach me about the pain of failure, acting as a force that helps me move forward. I create works that are easy for readers to get into but hard to escape from, as if under a spell.

In this novel, you'll meet Mae Kru Bulan [*], a woman with unique characteristics and a captivating beauty that will make you feel enchanted, just like Lieutenant Peem, who once never believed in magic. Once you revere her as your teacher, you'll never forget her name for the rest of your life.

I sincerely hope this work brings happiness to those who read it, as I've crafted this novel with utmost dedication. I promise to continue to improve in the future as a way to thank all my readers. I sincerely apologize if there are any shortcomings or mistakes.

You can follow my work on readAwrite and lunarwrite.

Thank you, with love and faith,

Note: Book Title

FORMIDABLE EYES

Chapter 01. Charm

Her eyes-sharp like a knife slashing souls.

Her skin-fair like the finest jewel.

Her hair-dark like the darkest coal.

Her beauty-unmatched by any damsel.

Her eyes-magnificent and full lips-majestic

Her figure-God-given and Heaven-fated.

Inked lace on her chest and metal lace on her dress; All to charm and enchant-to make their love to her their faith.

On her flank, two magples and a lotus dwell,

Enhancing her charm, reigning above any man and woman.

Heavenly lotus hidden below her navel.

Her name-Mae Kru Bulan.

Her thin, perfectly shaped, dark red lips have moved constantly since the

ritual began. Now, a middle-aged woman's shoulder was showing red ink from a long tattoo needle inside the school of Mae Kru Bulan, a woman of great merit who'd inherited tattooing art from her ancestors.

Not just in the district or Phop Phra, but almost everyone in Tak province knew her. When it came to white magic, magic that enhances one's popularity and reputation, Sak Yant, and Long Na ["], she was the go-to person.

Of course, these things were personal beliefs that couldn't be forced upon anyone. Mae Kru's tattooing skills were meticulous and beautiful, unmatched by anyone. She was also renowned for her ability to bring back husbands who'd strayed to their secret lovers.

Mae Kru had tattooed many famous celebrities. It was well-known that Mae Kru Bulan didn't perform charming spells for those who wanted to steal someone else's man or use it for improper purposes. She was popular among women.

Rarely did she tattoo men unless they had a feminine heart. She despised men who used their charming spells to manipulate women, violating the moral codes she upheld, which would degrade the power of magic in both the student and the teacher.

The school was a single-story wooden house with good ventilation and a natural cool breeze. The floor was covered with a large, thick carpet to welcome students and visitors. It was also used for rituals.

The school wasn't completely enclosed; the front had a waist-high gate, making the building visible from the outside. The surrounding area was plain concrete with a shoe rack on the side. It resembled a typical magical master's school with a high chair for Mae Kru and revered Por Kae masks, Buddha image, flower trays, incense, candles, and various offerings.

But the most striking feature from the first step inside was the statue of Ruesi Ta Fai and a large incense pot standing at the front. The actual living quarters were adjacent to the school, a modern two-story concrete house,

but no one had ever seen inside as it was private. One would only see the school and the exterior of the house.

On a typical weekday evening, it was normal to see only a few women visiting the school, unlike on weekends when many people came.

Mae Kru Bulan's beauty could be described as the epitome of Thai femininity, with a captivating and unforgettable face. If she walked by, one would turn back for another look. Her sharp, almond-shaped eyes were always sparkling, making it hard for any student to joke around with her.

She was a woman approaching thirty but showed no signs of aging. Her teardrop-shaped nose was a feature many women desired.

Because of this, she was the object of many men's desires, but mysteriously, no one could get close to her for more than seven days.

Despite her deep, stern voice, Mae Kru was quite polite and had a calm demeanor. People often saw her at major temple events in the province.

The needle was lifted from the woman's skin to refill the red ink prepared beside her. Suddenly, everything came to a halt when a woman with an oval face, sharp eyebrows, striking eyes, and a noticeable black mole under her left eye walked in unannounced.

Her clean appearance suggested she wasn't local. She walked straight in, past the revered statue, and stopped to ask loudly:

"Who is Mae Kru Bulan?"

Her confident demeanor and serious expression indicated she had something important to discuss. Her arrival without knowing who she was looking for seemed odd, drawing everyone's attention in the school. Her intimidating presence softened as she became unsure under the scrutiny.

The slender woman sitting on the wooden platform raised the needle in a wal to pay respect to her own spirited teacher before placing it on a golden

tray and turning to address the newcomer. It was fortunate she'd just finished tattooing the yantra.

"What do you want?"

Just a glance into her eyes revealed she was just another person coming here for help, but Mae Kru's voice remained calm. What was intriguing was the sense that this woman had a natural charm, making her easily desirable, yet her face and eyes were filled with sadness and worry.

"I need to speak with you privately. It's an important matter."

Her voice was hesitant, unlike her initial confident entrance, but her determined gaze remained. The unusual tone made everyone in the school exchange glances.

"Alright, whatever it is, you'll have to wait until everyone here has left. If you can't wait, then leave. Everyone has their own troubles to resolve."

Mae Kru's response was patient and calm, knowing this was the newcomer's first visit and unaware of the proper conduct before the many sacred items.

The woman sighed softly, lowered her head in thought, and then looked back at Mae Kru, who was still watching her, revealing her beautiful face.

"Girl, why don't you come inside and sit? Standing there isn't proper,"

Suggested a woman in her forties near the door, whispering to avoid causing any offense to Mae Kru before seeking help.

"I'll...wait in my car. How long will it take to finish here?"

The addressed woman politely crouched, responded calmly, and walked out.

Mae Kru's eyes followed her every move, noting how she respectfully gave a wal to the statue she'd previously ignored.

Thud...

A deep sigh escaped as she sat back in her car, her sharp eyes looking at herself in the mirror, contemplating something, then glancing at the small Buddha image on the dashboard.

"If these things are real, why would the Buddha teach people to do good?"

She muttered, disheartened, leaning back to rest from the day's exhaustion.

As the sun set, the rituals concluded. Mae Kru remembered she had another matter to attend to but didn't expect the woman to still be waiting after several hours.

She stepped outside to breathe the evening air and had a student go to check the car.

They confirmed that the woman was still waiting in her black five-door car parked nearby.

The tall woman's black sneakers touched the ground again as she approached, her height of about 170 centimeters becoming clearer without the roof's shadow.

Mae Kru's stern, calm eyes scanned her face in detail, feeling an unexpected liking for her eyes, perhaps because no one had ever stood up to her with such a demeanor before.

With a slightly taller frame, just about two to three centimeters more, the person in front of her had no choice but to lift their chin to converse with her, inadvertently seeing her plump lips up close.

Aside from the many men who tried to get close to her or her students, this was another gaze that made her feel oddly curious. It also made her wonder why this woman had come here. If she came here for a charming spell, she'd say it certainly wasn't necessary for someone with such a beautiful face.

"You're Mae Kru Bulan, right?"

The tall figure asked, seemingly aware that barging in and asking bluntly during a ritual might be a bit rude. This time, she asked in a much softer tone.

"Tell me the reason that brought you here. A person without faith has no reason to come to a place like this."

Mae Kru's voice was low and somewhat haughty as she asked, looking directly at the visitor's face and eyes without flinching, causing the visitor to avert her gaze.

"Something impossible has happened, and someone said you might be the only one who can help. I'm Peem. I'm a police investigator. You can call me Peem or Lieutenant Peem. Sorry for being a bit rude, but if you can really help, you'd really help us in dealing with bad people. I heard from people at the station that you're a good person. If asked nicely, you might agree to help."

Finally, the awkward statement explained why she seemed so brash, but now she was being polite.

"And if I'm not a good person or don't intend to help, what will you do, Lieutenant?"

It wasn't a teasing remark but rather a threatening one.

"What do I need to do for you to help? Name your price, and I'll pay it."

The eager negotiation seemed out of place, making Mae Kru's calm eyes show noticeable displeasure.

"Leave before you get into trouble."

The slender, tall woman tuned back toward her house, ready to walk away.

"And isn't this place built to play on people's superstitions for money? Or do you have enough that you don't care anymore? And who said Mae Kru Bulan is charitable? It's all lies... The things people come here to worship don't even exist..."

The angry words echoed loudly, causing Mae Kru, who'd turned away, to stop and turn back quickly, ready to respond. But seeing the red eyes and tears streaming down the woman's cheeks made her anger vanish instantly.

"What do you want?"

It wasn't that she'd never seen anyone cry before, but she was used to seeing people wail in despair as if they were about to die right in front of her. This was the first time her strong heart felt weak upon seeing tears.

"Bullets that should've stopped the evil deeds of bad people twice didn't fire, even though the gun was fine. If it's not beyond your power... please give me an answer... what should I do?"
