It's clear that Galen has some sort of feelings towards Violet, but to what extent is debatable. Clues to his feelings towards Violet include:

• His odd pleasure when she takes a roll from him at dinner

• His courteous standing when Violet leaves the dining room

• His stopping to let her enter the dining room first and pulling out her chair for her (and his smile when she thanked him for it)

• His apparent enthusiasm at the thought of playing Chess with her

• His bemusement when Violet laid her fingers on his chin to thank him for escorting her upstairs after being drugged

• His alarm at Violet's condition when she was suffering hyperthermia

• His apparently hurt feelings at Violet's comment about Dominic taking care of her ("Taking care of Violet was hisjob.")

• His astonishing reaction to Violet's thank-you kiss after the dinner date

Violet commented to Dominic that she noticed Galen seemed to like her ever since she had arrived at the Mansion, saying, "I feel like I'm a little girl, and he's my big brother protecting me."

However, Galen's feelings towards her seem to change dramatically in response to the particular situation. He brought her the bucket of rocks to stone Kassandra with, and restrained her when she tried to intervene. He again restrained her during the escape attempt, both physically and with restraints on Dr. Chalsey's examination table. During the struggle outside the upstairs bathroom, he shoved Violet backward violently with his foot, sending her headfirst into the bottom step of the half-flight of stairs.

His behavior in Book Two, during the brief encounter in the garage, was likewise different-he seemed prepared to do whatever was necessary to halt her escape.

Again, his feelings are highly debatable. It's safe to say that he does have some feelings for Violet, but whether they are love, infatuation, or a big-brother role as she described is unknown. And clearly, he is able to put those feelings entirely aside when required to protect her or restrain her.
