I don't know. However, I've always wondered exactly how Laura Hale recieved her alpha powers. She was born a werewolf like every other Hale, and the wiki says she assumed the role of the Hale alpha after the Hale house fire. So does that mean Talia's alpha powers were passed on to Laura and not Peter when Talia passed away? That would further explain why Peter chose to kill Laura to become an alpha. The alpha powers might have gone to him had he not been in the fire, though that's a weak idea because Derek was also with Laura and we don't know if and how alpha powers are passed down heriditarily. Perhaps Laura was the strongest beta in the family after the fire. Secondly, it's understood he killed her to be strong enough to exact revenge, but I also wonder if he felt slighted since the powers went to Laura before him. There's so much mystery to the Hale family that an entire season could be dedicated to unraveling their history.
