As Decaulion told him a pack is so strong as thier members. I believe a werewolf decides whether he should join/leave a pack - NOT the leader. Peter Hale, the most powerful werewolf ever, decide to join Scott's pack for a short time so Scott was able to destroy the magical barrier. Sorry folks, but Peter Hale is the only true alpha arround! :)

Peter Hale isn't a true alpha at all. He became an alpha by killing another alpha. And I'm pretty sure there has to be mutual agreement to join a pack. An alpha can't just steal someone's loyalty without them granting it, but a beta can't just say I'm in your pack now either. An alpha has an obligation to protect its betas and if every beta and omega just had to say I'm your responsibility now, there would be no omegas.
