Chapter 9 - Facing a dangerous ambush on the mountain highway as armed cartel mercenaries attempt to intercept the billionaire heiress estate convoy tonight.
At midnight, a convoy of three black armored SUVs traveled along the winding, rain-slicked highway toward the Sterling estate in upstate New York.
Inside the middle vehicle, Maya sat in the plush leather rear seat, gently rocking little Evelyn while Luka monitored security screens.
Suddenly, a massive semi-truck pulled out from a side road, jackknifing across the highway and blocking all three lanes in front of them.
Behind the convoy, two dark SUVs sped up fast, their high-beam headlights blinding the driver as armed men leaned out of the windows.
"Ambush! Hold on!" Luka shouted, pulling a tactical pistol from his shoulder holster while bracing Maya's seat with his arm.
Automatic gunfire echoed through the stormy night air, the heavy rounds flattening against the Suburban's reinforced bulletproof glass panels.
The lead security vehicle rammed the semi-truck's rear trailer, creating a narrow gap through which Luka's driver accelerated at full speed.
Luka rolled down his window slightly, firing three precise shots that blew out the front tires of the pursuing mercenary SUV behind them.
