Devotee here: To ask Lord Shiva, meditate in a quiet place, chant 'Om Namah Shivaya' 108 times, offer bilva leaves or milk. Sincerely state your wish, but remember, it's about devotion, not demands. Shiva blesses pure hearts.
From my experience, talk to Shiva like a friend. Sit before his image, close eyes, express gratitude first, then your wish. No fancy rituals needed if heart is true. He's within you.
