But i think at that time he was too blinded by wanting the power of the beast and no longer cared to be an alpha. Also we have watched theo double cross everyone and either kill them or try to get them killed but he just shocks Deuc with a electric bolt and is still agreeing to honor their deal didnt make sense. And my theory is that theo could only take the power of other chimera since he was a chimera and not because they were his pack dont think they were ever actually a pack they had no alpha and they are all basically human with supernatural DNA. The thing is, The whole point of 5a's finale was for Liam to kill Scott, gain his Alpha status, and then Theo would kill Liam to gain the Alpha status. This is because Scott is a True Alpha, so only the beta(s) he created can steal his power. This implies that, at least to Theo's knowledge, he is able to steal the power of an Alpha in the same way werewolves can.

So Deucalion comes along, an Alpha who is NOT a True Alpha, and then Theo not killing him just makes no sense. The only thing that makes sense is that he just wanted La Bete, and still needed Deucalion for guidance.
