    </Setter>
    <Style.Triggers>
        
        <Trigger Property="IsMouseOver" Value="True">

                <Border
                    Margin="0,10,10,10"
                    Padding="5"
                    HorizontalAlignment="Right"
                    BorderBrush="#dee4ec"

            </ControlTemplate>
        </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
</Style>

4. Bind the CurrentPage and Pages properties to your view model:

public class YourViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
    private int _currentPage;
    private int _pages;

    public int CurrentPage
    {
        get => _currentPage;
        set
        {
            if (_currentPage != value)
            {
                _currentPage = value;
                OnPropertyChanged();
            }
        }
    }

    public int Pages
    {
        get => _pages;
        set
        {
            if (_pages != value)
            {
                _pages = value;
                OnPropertyChanged();
            }
        }
    }

    public YourViewModel()
    {
        Pages = 10;
        CurrentPage = 1;
    }

    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;

    protected void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)
    {
        PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
    }
}
