Perhaps the red is only shown when they need to exert control or dominance, or some show of strength. Maybe the red only shows when they are enraged. Maybe an Alpha that has taken a life has to consciously "mask" the blue with the red. I don't think the answer has ever really been given. Any sort of speculation can be derived. The bottom line is that I cannot recall any specific answer in interviews or the show as to why Derek's eyes appear to "shift" between blue or red at any given time as an Alpha. As far as I can recall Alphas have always, 100% of the time, had red eyes. When did Derek not? Remember he wasn't an Alpha until the last few minutes of season 1, and he gave up his Alpha status to heal Cora.

Right, I can't recall any time that any of the alphas were shifted that they didn't have red eyes. Derek has blue/green eyes naturally in human form.
