I don't know about that. If the whole Paige and Kate thing never happened he would've had a completely different life, and likely would've been a very different person than he is today.

Of course, Peter has said that young Derek was a lot like Scott. Maybe the whole end game of Peter convincing Derek to try and turn her was to get Derek to kill her, thus removing his chance of ever becoming a true alpha.

But, that brings up the question of, if he could see that potential in Derek, why didn't he notice that same potential in Scott? Because in the hospital episode Peter was pretty surprised to find it out.
