" Huh?". Addie asked and he looked at her.

" I said my first wish would be for you to treat me to dinner on the rooftop". He said and she smiled.

" I've got you covered". She replied.

She had already prepared a lot of dishes before he came and then she set them all on the rooftop while Tyler watched her.

" You sure you don't need my help?". He asked.

" Nah, I'm good". She replied and just then, a plate fell with a loud thud on the floor and it shattered into pieces.

She stared down at the appalling mess and in no time, Tyler rushed over to her.

" It was....."

But before she could finish her statement, he swept her off her feet and took her to the couch.

" You should have just taken my help". He said as he pushed her forehead.

"C'mon, it's your birthday. Who does chores on their birthday? I'll go clean up". She said and tried to stand but groaned and fell back on the couch.

" Damnit ". She cursed as she stared down at her leg.

It was covered in blood. She stared up at Tyler giving him a nervous smile. He sighed and took a first aid kit from the drawer and tended to her cut.

" You got deeply cut". He said as he applied the mint to her wound.

He held his shoulder tightly as she hissed in pain. He quickly blew some air carefully into it and completely focused on tending to her wound.

" Does it still hurt?". He asked but she was just lost staring at his face.

She didn't understand why she felt so safe with this man even after knowing his a mafia, a killer.

She felt safe with him and couldn't understand why.

She was snapped out of her thoughts when she felt Tyler's hands on her chin.

" Where were you?". He asked and she stared at him.

" Here". She replied.

" I don't think so". He said and she scratched her head nervously.

She turned to the kitchen.

" I'll take care of it. Just stay here and rest". He said and headed towards the kitchen.

Addison watched as he cleaned up the kitchen and served the dishes she had prepared.

He took them to the rooftop and came back down.

" All set". He said and as she tried to stand up, Tyler carried her in his arms.

" Hey, what are you doing?". She asked as she tried to come down.

" You hurt your foot". He said still walking up the staircase with her.

He wasn't feeling tired carrying her and Addie was so close to him, she could feel his hard chest and also his heartbeat.

They got to the rooftop and had their dinner. As they ate, Tyler stole glances at Addison who was so focused on eating.

He could guess she hadn't had anything to eat since morning. She looked hungry and she devoured her meal rapidly.

All he could think of was how she took her time to make today special for him. He has never seen so much in a lady before.

She was just outstanding and different from the rest.

He smiled as he thought of her and shrugged as he went back to eating.

After dinner, they both packed up the plates and tidied the place.

" So what's your second wish?". Addison asked as soon as they were done cleaning up.

" Give me a kiss". He said and she raised her brows.

" Why would that be your second wish?". She asked and he smiled.

" It's my wish". He replied and she sighed.

She walked closer to him and was about to kiss him when he stopped her. She was even more confused.

" Make it french". He added with a smirk and she glared at him.

He pointed at his lips and she sighed again. She stood on her toes, wrapping her arms around his neck, she pressed her lips with his.

She kissed him and he kissed her back passionately. He teased her mouth with his tongue and she mo@ned at his touch.

She felt so distracted as she felt his hands slid under her thigh. She quickly broke the kiss.

" Your wish granted". She quickly said and was about to walk away when Tyler pulled her back.

" What about my third wish?". He asked with a smirk.

" I...uh... what's your third wish?". She asked and she stared at him as he unbuttoned his shirt.

" What are you doing?". She asked as she moved back.

He moved closer to her.

" Trying to explain what my third wish is. But with the look on your face, I guess you already know what it is". He said and.....

Addison woke up the next morning feeling sore all over her. She turned to see Tyler sleeping next to her.

She smiled and quickly frowned.

' what am I doing?'. She thought as she hit herself on the head.

She quietly stood up and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. As she placed some slices of bread on the plate, she felt hands on her waist.

Tyler

" I thought you were asleep?". She asked, not turning to him and felt his face in her neck making her pause.

" I couldn't feel you next to me. Don't ever leave me like that again". He said and she just kept mute.

She turned to him meeting his gaze.

" Can I ask for a favour?". She asked, staring eagerly at him.

" Say it".

" I need to see my mum. It's been a while and I......"

" After breakfast, get dressed". He said and took a slice of bread and walked out of the kitchen.

She sighed and held her chest.

They drove to the hospital and made their way to the ward.

" Mum!". Addison beamed as she ran over to hug her mum, Tyler trailed behind.

" Addison, dear. How have you been?". Her mum asked and patted her head.

"I'm fine. How have you been?". Addison asked back, fighting her tears.

" I'm getting better". Her mum replied and looked behind Addison.

" Addison, who is the young man behind you?". Her mum whispered.

" Oh, um....he ....he....."

" I'm her husband".
