You're over thinking it.

The parent's sacrifice would have charged the nemeton not her.

She didn't necessarily need (or expect to have) a charged up nemeton to go after the Alphas she went straight after Kali when she went looking for Derek.

She used the parents more for blackmail at that point even though their sacrifice would have charged the nemeton.

Things we don't know -

She may have never planned to kill them and was only using them as blackmail. She stored them at the nemeton because she knew that was a place she could protect or destroy with the storm.

Maybe killing them with the storm was her back up if she got her ass kicked by the Alphas anyway - get slashed then crawl to the recharged nemeton and get revived and start over.

These are motivations that we don't know.
