That way he could kill her as soon as he got what he needed. But no. He was to drag her back there. Taking someone alive is riskier than killing them and stealing the power. She did it because Cinder is her favorite and she wanted Cinder to have her revenge. And I believe in her twisted motherly way she thinks that's showing compassion to Cinder

Um how exactly would a GRIMM parasite steal the power of something it is naturally weak against. It would be like Superman eating kryptonite. It'd kill it.

I have a thought...what if Salem reincarnates like Oz and the Maidens, the reason she's being nice to Cinder isn't that she cares, but instead that she's protecting and healing her next body.
