Some of you will probably disagree with me but I don't think Derek's journey is not about his status in the werewolf community (Alpha, Beta, Who cares...). I think his journey on the show is about his guilt over his family member's deaths, about his battle with loneliness, and his acceptance and hope of a better future.

I honestly don't care that he's not an Alpha, I think he'll make an excellent Beta, and a great advisor to Scott. Unlike Deaton, Derek can actually provide some insight on how it is dealing with the inner wolf.
