We also know now that Kali and Deculion knew the Hales or at least Derek's mom because he said to her that she was right that Derek looked like his mom. When Derek said he was a fanatic maybe that means Deculion tried to get Derek's mom to kill her family? It was never said who the alpha of the family was before Laura. Maybe it was there mom? It would explain why Derek would refer to him as a fanatic.
