BIOGRAPHY
As far as he could remember, Jonah’s life had always been filled with questions, unsolved mysteries he strived to find an answer to. As a child, he was the type to ask questions all day long until his parents would get tired of hearing it. From the mundane (Why can’t I eat ice cream for every meal?) to the weirdly philosophical (Why is there war in the world?), Jonah’s mind questioned everything he saw and experienced, and yet it took him a few years to ask the question that really would be central to his life: The question of who were his biological parents. It had been no secret to him from the start that he had been adopted, but there was little information he had about his genetic origins. His adoptive parents were unable, or unwilling, to share much; supposedly it had been a closed adoption, and nobody actually knew who it was that had given the boy away in the first place. It was a loose end, an unanswered question that would bother Jonah for a long time, much more than he first realized.
Overall, his childhood was happy - sheltered, and a bit quiet maybe, but happy. The town his family lived in was small and sedate, their house modest but at least offering a roof over their heads. In school, Jonah did well, despite showing slightly hyperactive tendencies at times, his curiosity and thirst for knowledge led to decent grades overall. Nonetheless, he lacked a clear destination, missing a goal and purpose in life, and found himself at a loss when it came to applying for college. In the end, it came as a surprise to nobody that he pursued journalism, matching his curious nature and the tendency to ask way too many questions all the time. He did well throughout his studies, eventually settling in a just slightly larger town to work for a local newspaper. A new place to maybe find answers that would make him feel less lost, less incomplete.
However, Jonah never found the answers he truly was looking for - instead, one day they began to find him. He received a letter, unexpected and unannounced - a letter from a lawyer, informing him about his biological father’s passing. Curiously, no name was mentioned in this announcement, just the expression of regret the man had felt over never getting to know his youngest child - a wording that made Jonah take notice. Not only had his unknown father contacted him from beyond the grave, but also left him with one important bit of information, despite how cryptic the latter was: He had a sibling. All of a sudden, the need to find closure on all the unanswered questions about his heritage resurfaced, and Jonah began to do some research.
Trying to keep his own name hidden from whoever he was looking into - assuming his sibling(s) did not know about him yet -, the journalist hired a private investigator to look into the case. It turned out to be surprisingly hard to find the intel on who his biological father actually had been; even after weeks, the PI had not come up with a name, but managed to track some of the money that his father’s lawyer had been sending out for his now deceased client. The most interesting transaction was a fairy impressive sum, sent regularly to a facility calling itself the Haus of Perses - a transaction that was still continuing on, despite his father’s apparent death. Clearly the lawyer was managing the whole family’s account, and it was likely his unknown brother that was sending money to the Haus. The PI followed that lead, reporting to Jonah that the Haus offered men a place to explore their fantasies, a fascinating location that peaked the journalist’s interest even regardless of his own personal connection to one of their clients.
He tasked the investigator with finding a way for him to get invited into the Haus himself; quickly it became clear that becoming a client was a privilege reserved for the rich and famous, and Jonah was neither. So instead, a plan was devised. The PI successfully tracked down one of the Haus’s scouts, and Jonah threw himself head first into a personal mission to be hired. It wasn’t quite an undercover mission, as technically he seeked out the man and the job as himself, though he left out his journalism background or the fact that his brother was connected to the place. Instead, he fully stepped into the world that he was about to enter, trying to let go of inhibitions and embrace the kink. The plan worked; the scout approached him about working for the Haus, and after feigned hesitation, Jonah agreed. He wasn’t quite sure what he was getting into, or how exactly he was going to figure out who his brother was, but the first step had been done, and he was determined to get some answers.
