Of course, it is just speculation, but as far as we know, only a true alpha can produce this "alpha power" by its own. Perhaps this is also the reason, he can break through a Mountain Ash force field.

By the way, how became Laura Hale an alpha? By killing her mother?

Or was it a gift from her dying mother?

We know what Talia said to Derek: "You are a predator, but you don’t have to be a killer!"

So killing her own mother seems wrong to me!
