Peter was not a alpha in the hale family pack. Where do you get the idea that Deuc can't steal other Alpha powers? He absorbed Ennis' power by killing him, so therefore he can do it.

Think of it like in a real wolf society (Teen Wolf has so far kept true to this type of heirarchy so I see no reason why it would change): In real life wolf packs, if a Beta challenges and beats the Alpha then that Beta becomes that Alpha and gains the "power" or in their case the Betas and territories of the beaten Alpha. If another Alpha, which we will call A2, comes into the territory, challenges and beats A1 then A2 gains A1's "power" or in their case the Betas and territories A1 previously held.

There has not been anything in the show that refutes this. In fact, it fits with what Morrell was saying about the many other people Deuc has killed for his power and his "perfect" pack. He has gained power not just from killing his own Betas but also from killing Alphas he deems as weak. The idea that an Alpha cannot absorb the power of another Alpha is ridiculous and doesn't follow what we've seen in the show nor in real wolf packs.

As for Peter not being an Alpha in the Hale family pack, he most certainly was in S1, Derek was his Beta so therefore it was within the Hale family pack. Now calm down, I know you meant BEFORE the fire....in that case no one can say whether or not he was or wasn't since none of us knows for sure what took place before in their family. I admit that I lean more toward him not being one before BUT it is all speculation at this point, because we simply do NOT know.
