A transitive verb has a direct object and usually, the subject is doing the action towards that object. The subject performs the action and the object receives the actions. So I believe D is the answer.
Rainsford's actions are justified because he will never truly be free until Zaroff is dead. A "beast at bay" refers to someone who is still being hunted. Rainsford will always feel hunted as long as Zaroff is alive, because he knows the 'hunt' will always go on in Zaroff's mind. He has to kill Zaroff so he doesn't have to live in fear.
