pull her into my arms and kiss her like crazy, but instead I sent her home out of panic because of my body’s reaction to her. She has no idea just how much she affects me and to be honest I don’t know how this whole intern thing is going to work out. I can’t spend the entire time away on business or hiding in my office.
    No, what I need is a distraction, a really good distraction to help me get her off my mind. Yes, a good fuck is exactly what I need to get myself back on track. My old childhood pal Jackson Stone has just opened his new club JAXX last month and I have heard it was the hottest new ticket in town. I text Jackson and he tells me that he has me a section reserved in the VIP area upstairs. I immediately feel better and back on track to being me. I have let Skylar Rose into my head for far too long. After tonight she will no longer be more than a memory.

 
    Skylar
    I wake up near noon take a shower and change my clothes. The sadness of earlier has now been replaced by intense anger. I don’t know what tomorrow will bring, but I will just learn to keep my head down and do my job. One thing was for sure, I am through wasting my time on worrying about Sebastian Thorne. The Sebastian I know is obviously gone and maybe he never even existed to begin with. Even though it was him on the outside, Mr. Thorne is now the one present. I have an internship to complete and a future ahead of me. The last thing I need is a distraction. I’ll just consider it a lesson learned.
    Since I have the afternoon free, I text Megan to see when I can come to check things out at the club. I get an immediate reply from her telling me that she will be there all evening and to come anytime I want. Texting her back, I let her know I am on the way there, and I throw my curls into a ponytail.
    The club is only about a twenty-five minute drive from my house. When I arrive, there only a few cars occupy the large parking lot. Nervously I open up the front door, and I am shocked at the elegant layout of the room. This place is not at all what I had imagined in my head. A beautiful lounge is located off to the left past the entrance. Slowly, I continued walking through the lounge area and on into another massive room full of the deep passion colors of red and purple. A beautiful wooden bar sits to the left of the room facing the large dining area. A stage set in the center of the room has a massive metal stairway leads up to another large section that overlooks the entire downstairs.
    I don’t see Megan anywhere , so I make my way towards the front of the room. A tall guy with dark hair comes in behind the bar carrying cases of bottles and quickly stops when he sees me. His dark eyes slowly rake up and down my body and he looks at me with a mischievous grin on his face. The look he continues giving me makes me more than uncomfortable. When his gaze lands on my chest, I feel instantly self-conscious of the tank top I am wearing.
    “Well , hello there, are you looking for someone? If not, I certainly hope you are looking for me,” he says and winks.
    Oh great … let’s just say CREEP!
    “UM… hi, I’m looking for Megan. She told me to stop by.”
    “Oh yeah , are you the new girl? Megan is in the back office. I’m Brandon, by the way. I’m one of the bartenders here,” he says as he extends his hand out to me. Hesitantly I take it and shake his hand.
    “I’m Skylar , and I just came to talk to her about a job. I haven’t been offered anything yet.”
    He nods and leans over the bar, and I can smell his strong cologne.
    “Trust me , babe, one look at you and Jackson will have you as his star lady here.”
    He lifts the phone and hits a button, “Megan, there is a bombshell up here waiting t o see you,” Brandon says and hangs the phone back up.
                  “She will be here in just a minute. You can have a seat and wait here if you like. Can I get you something to drink?” he asks me as he leans into the
