That makes sense. If Cinder is threatening to destroy the faunus race unless they side with her, that would give White Fang plenty of reason to be very loyal... assuming they actually believe she can follow through on her threats.

So far, though, we've seen no evidence that Cinder is capable of following through on such a threat. She seemed more than a match for Ruby, but Ruby is far from the best warrior on Vytal. Cinder appeared to have at least a little bit of trouble fighting off Glynda long enough for them to make their escape. She hardly seemed powerful enough to seriously threaten an entire species.
