Manually set style for a given control from Telerik implicit Theme (Office2013)

I would like to use the 'accent'/'selected' color from my office 2013 implicit theme for a generic control (in my case I am using a Hyperlink inside a TextBlock - I have two of those) in code/xaml to show the selected/unselected color depending on whether the user clicks on one or the other link, i.e. if the user clicks on option 1, I'd like to apply the corresponding color/brush that'd show that it is selected, when the user clicks on option 2, then, I'd like to return option 1 to the default color and have Option 2 switch to the 'selected' one.

I've attached images to show what I want (based on Outlook 2013 inbox header)
