laura inhearited the rank of Alpha after the hale fire, because she was the next in line, killing isn't the only way. i agree that just asserting domanince can make someone an alpha. if derek was killed, i feel that one of his betas, most likely scott, would become the alpha because he would lead issac and boyde. when issac attacked allison, scott was able to force him back to human form, and able make him stop fighting one of the twins. this to me, was very reminsent of early in season 2 when derek forced iassac out of transformation when he was about to attack stiles.
