In Beginning of the End, Cinder quite obviously reported in to someone, but we only heard her side of the conversation.

"The Huntsman severed the connection before it was complete. (pause) Yes. It's... an emptiness. It burns. Like hunger. I like it. (pause) Yes. I will claim what is ours. (pause) Thank you."

It's like someone else was talking to her, and she was replying to them.

Not to mention, at the end of Heroes and Monsters, Cinder said "She was right about you."

"She", as in someone else, not Cinder.

Cinder works for Salem. She has her reasons. Salem might be keeping Cinder in the dark about her true motives and plans, or she could be tricking Cinder.
