[Daenerys says this with confidence and certainty. Normally, she might have expressly forbade it but -- well, Jon has made his position on her declaring authority over him very clear, so she skips it for now.
The truth is that she needs to hear her own bravado right now. The transformations were stressful, frightening, and painful. Jon would be witness to most of it, and would feel it through the empathy bond once he reached out. There would be no secret for her to hide -- but being honest about that now is too much honest vulnerability for her to deal with.
So he'll be surprised by it, and figure it out.]
You have a dragon. Don't lose hold, and you win the battle.
