You Can’t Run From Me
[Location: Alina’s Apartment – 9:03 AM]
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(Slamming door behind her) What the hell was that night?
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(thoughts) I can’t think straight. My body still feels him. My lips… my thïghs… everything.
[She drops her keys, rushes to the bathroom, splashes cold water on her face.]
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(Staring into the mirror) You’re not his. It was one night. You’re not some possession.
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
Message : Did you reach home safe, kitten?
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(Heart jumps) No. Block. Delete.
[She blocks the number, tosses her phone on the bed.]
Lana Petrov (FL's Best Friend)
(calling) : So? Was he hot?
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
Lana, it wasn’t just sēx. It was… something else. He was dark. Dangerous.
Lana Petrov (FL's Best Friend)
Girl, don’t fall for mafia diçk.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
Wait - what?
Lana Petrov (FL's Best Friend)
Damir Sokolov. I Googled him. Russian mafia. Controls the eastern arms. You didn’t just sleep with a bad boy, babe. You slept with the fûçkiñg devil.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(Voice shaking) I have to forget him. I have to go to the studio.
[Location: Volkova Ballet Conservatory – 11:00 AM]
Yakov (ML's Dance Instructor)
Alina, you’re late.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
Sorry. Had a rough night.
Yakov (ML's Dance Instructor)
Don’t bring your nights into my studio. You’re a dancer. Move like one.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
[She takes her position, begins to dance. But her legs tremble. The stretch in her thighs is a reminder. Her mind keeps flashing to Damir's hands.]
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(thoughts): He fuçkēd me so deep I can’t even plié properly.
[Phone buzzes on the bench.]
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
New Number: You blocked me. Cute. But you can’t block fate.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
Damir?!
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
Step outside. Now.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(to herself): No. No. No.
[She peeks through the studio blinds. A black Rolls-Royce is parked outside. A tall man stands near it - Igor. She recognizes him from the hotel lobby.]
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(whispering): He found me…
Lana Petrov (FL's Best Friend)
(texting): There’s a man waiting outside for you. Dressed like a bodyguard. Should I be worried?
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
Yes. Stay inside. Don’t talk to him.
[She grabs her bag, storms out the back exit.]
[Location: Moscow Street – 11:15 AM]
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(Breathing heavily, walking fast) I’m not doing this. I’m not playing some pet to a mafia man.
[Car screeches up beside her. Window lowers. Damir.]
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
Get in.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
No.
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
(Dead calm) I said get in.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
I said no.
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
(Steps out, grabs her wrist) You think you’re cute, running from me? You think I’ll just forget how you bēggēd for my cøck?
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
Don’t talk to me like that!
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
Then stop acting like this wasn’t real
[He slams her against the car. Not hurting. Just pinning. His body presses into hers. Her breath catches.]
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
I marked you. I took you. And I will never let you go.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(Softly) You can’t control me.
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
Can’t I?
[He kisses her - forceful, claiming. Her body betrays her. Melting. Needing.]
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
(Pushing weakly) We’re in public…
Damir Sokolov (Male Lead)
Then scream my name louder. Let the city know who owns you.
Spoiler : Damir brings her to his estate. Alina sees the world she’s now trapped inside.
Alina Volkova (Female Lead)
