Galen's words register on some level, but right now she has vicious, terrifying, dangerous shifter trying to claw out her freaking intestines! She's not made of stone. She's not some undead, empty shell of a body. His claws meet soft skin and draw blood and it hurts. He could kill her easily if she's not careful.
The plan is to just hold him there, keep him away from her meal-- friend! That's Galen. That's her friend. This is Jesse. Also her friend. She shouldn't be fighting him--
And then his words hit her like a baseball bat to the stomach. She snaps out of it, eyes clear and back to normal. She releases him just enough to let him sit up a little... and then she full on backhands him right across his face, screaming, before slamming his head back down and leaning with her arm against his throat. She puts all her weight into it and snarls down at him with her face incredibly close to his.
"You think I don't fucking know that? I KNOW! I know better than anyone they aren't the same. I know. You better shut the hell up right now before you get hurt." Because in this fucked up, fae state of mind she would just love to share the pain she's currently feeling.
