Gaining the trust of the leader was only the first step in his large plan. Killing his mate sounds like an incredible idea to gain the role of leader and lead the clan to fill out his scarily corrupt and wrongful ideas. Though, the clan leader at the time of writing this still had a full 7 lives, meaning it'll be a while before he even truly gets a chance to have a falling out with the leader and "accidentally" kill them to claim leadership. Instead, he slowly sets up traps to kill others in the clan, making Hollowclan the quietest, scariest, and smallest clan within the four. Sometimes he'll outright kill cats with his own claws if they prove to be too much of a problem. Not that anyone puts much trust in him to begin with. Being a typically rude cat that has a head full of only himself more than half the time, that much being the only obvious traits, nobody will willingly go to him for their issues. No matter whether it be with camp or personal. It's a rare occurance, but Specklegaze has killed cats of other clans and sometimes even his own just for fun instead of with reason. Reason doesn't make it much better, however, as its often foul whether you dig into it or not.
