Why Do Blue Eyes Exist Novels & Stories

"Yeah, my siblings went after our grandfather who had black hair and blue eyes, while I went after our grandmother who had brown hair and brown eyes," "Sounds like a biological anomaly," "What?" "The only way you can have your eyes blue is if both your parents have blue eyes and both Arcangelo and Rosalie have them. And the only way those two have blue eyes if that their parents had blue eyes, and you having brown eyes is a biological anomaly in that regard," "Not necessarily," Marco shook his head, trying to clear his head as he never had anyone point out the flaw in his words. "Arsenio's girls have the Regnante looks while their mom is blonde with grey eyes,"

And he didn’t want me to find out. Blue eyes, in itself, were relatively rare for a shifter, but rarer still if their wolf had the same colour. He shrugged and told me that he wasn’t sure and would get back to me. As far as he was concerned, there shouldn't have been anyone here with those abilities, but it didn’t mean there wasn’t.

I glanced at my face, trying to figure out the difference. My brown hair was the same, dark against my pale skin. Cheekbones were a little more pronounced. My rounded chin was a touch pointier. I studied my eyes and realized that was what was throwing me off. I loved my icy blue, I had been the only person in the Clan with blue eyes. The trait had become so recessive since the Fall, that there were only a handful of humans in the world with blue eyes. But what stared back at me made my heart drop. One eye was still icy blue with a thick ring of darker blue around it. But my other eye. My left eye was now golden. A sunburst of yellow around my pupil was ringed by melted bronze.

"Your blue eyes, how many other wolves have that?" I thought back, trying to remember if anyone else had the same color. My mind was turning up blanks though. "I guess I haven't really met any others." I confessed. "Exactly!" Dee smiled wider. "Hell even my grey eyes are more common than your's and that says a lot. I remember reading about what blue eyes mean but that was years ago. I don't really remember it much." "Dee, do you think maybe you could track it down in one of your books?" I now wanted to know more about this topic. If there really was something special about me and my eyes maybe it would explain why Matteo had chosen me to be his mate.

But then it faltered. “Your eyes,” she murmured. I blinked, startled. “What about them?” She leaned closer. “They’re changing,” she said slowly. “There’s a blue ring around the edges. Just like your grandmother’s… and hers before that.” I frowned. “Mom, it’s probably just the light.” Her hand brushed my cheek gently. “No. In our family, blue eyes mean strength. The strongest wolves were always born with them.” I forced a laugh, shaking my head. “I’m not strong, Mom. I’m barely keeping myself together.”

I asked. Nathan furrowed his brow. “Erm, I guess. What does that have to do with anything?” I sighed. “They’re blue-green, just like yours. But you got your eyes from your mother, didn’t you? And he’s from your father’s side of the family. You don’t find that weird?” Nathan looked puzzled. “I mean, blue-green eyes aren’t that rare, Liv. Maybe it’s a coincidence. What are you getting at?”

"Different how? She’s stubborn and mouthy, but that doesn’t make her special." “Oh yes, it does… and c’mon, did you notice the color of her eyes?” “So, what about it?” “Only Alphas possess that color of eyes, and under a special kinda moon… only under the blue moon, which occurs once in a lifetime. But that is the natural color of her eyes.” “Okay? Let’s assume the color of her eyes is different from every other ordinary wolf because she’s a deviant… a mere blight of nature. How does that make her special?”

They looked at the other baby almost at the same time. He burped after he finished the milk and opened his eyes. His ebony-coloured eyes darted about and he looked like he was full of life. Mango and Nathaniel heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. "Fortunately, the eyes of their other child were normal." But why did one of their children have blue eyes? Mango and Nathaniel were both puzzled. "Genevieve was also puzzled and suddenly thought of something. She said, ""Could Desmond's blood cause the baby's eyes to be this colour?"""

“The eye color is determined by two factors. It’s a pair, and we represent them with letters. The uppercase letter is the dominant factor, and the lowercase letter is the non-dominant one. People with brown eyes could have two dominant factors: MM. But there are also people with brown eyes who have one dominant factor and are Μμ or μΜ. The people with blue eyes have only no dominant factors, so they are μμ. People with two identical factors (ΜΜ or μμ) are homozygous for the character, and people with two different factors (Μμ or μΜ) are heterozygous. Let’s just say that the eye color is only determined by only one gene, which is not in reality, and we have two homozygous parents.

That I didn’t take earning a higher rank in the pack more seriously. Still, none of it makes sense. I’m not the type to hold hostage. There’s nothing special about me. Except my eyes. They’re the only thing that makes me an anomaly. Where it’s common in other canines to have mismatched eyes, it’s exceedingly rare in wolf shifters. My parents have never seen one with eyes like mine, nor had their parents before them. My left eye an ice blue, nearly blending with the snow, polar opposite that of my right, so dark I’d be convinced it was ebony if not for the flecks of gold sprinkled like stars. No matter how rare I may be, it shouldn’t be enough to kidnap me.
