Also which part are you talking about his eyes flashing? During the fight or the next episode. Just because Scott said repeatedly he didn't want to be in Derek's pack doesn't mean he wasn't -- he was pretty clearly bound to Derek all the same. He was bitten by a Hale Alpha and he was still in the area, interacting with the Hale pack. There really wasn't anything defining him as not being in the pack except that he didn't listen to Derek. All of Derek's other Betas have not listened to him at one point or another as well, but they were still part of the pack.

But what still doesn't make sense is that, for a period, there was no Alpha after Derek gave up his Alpha status to heal Cora and before Scott ascended to being the Alpha. That's why I think that the Alpha spark has to be consciously passed on -- because, apparently, it's possible to have a werewolf pack that has no Alpha. (Although they probably don't last long.)
