It's kind of a confusing situation because Deucalion both wanted Scott as a true aplha and a killer, but as we know, he can't be both.

Deucalion wanted Derek to kill his pack because Scott was part of the pack, and he saw what a potential threat a true alpha could be. The best way to get rid of a threat is to have someone else do it for you, and maybe he was just having Derek get rid of the Scott issue for him.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. However, we didn't see any of that explored after Derek killed Boyd. The whole season, they strongly imposed that Deucalion does everything for a reason -- that he's usually right. When Derek killed Boyd, he was supposed to become blood thirsty to kill another pack member. Deucalion even told Derek that he just wanted Derek to kill one of his pack members, and then he'll do the rest on his own. But instead, Derek became depressed, banged a Darach, and had some story told about his old eyes. There was no rage, no blood thirstiness, and no display of the extra power he got. In fact, he gave up his powers to save Cora, so there seems to be no significance for that story line.

So...Deucalion wanted Derek to kill his pack members in hopes of him killing Scott for him...but he also wanted Derek to join his pack to help persuade Scott to join it too...cause he wants a True Alpha in his pack to make it the best...but also wants Scott to become a killer, just like him...

Deucalion is one confusing character.

I always figured (though it wasn't flat out said) that Derek didn't behave like Deucalion expected was because Derek didn't kill Boyd. He was used as a weapon to kill Boyd. That's not the same thing.
