Answer is A —love

Repugnance —-intense Aversion , Repulsion

Awe—–Its some kind of Emotion which makes you to respect some Deity, A profound Emotion inspired by Deity, Admiration , It may be be feeling of fear which can make you to Admire some body—–

but it dosn’t mean that you love some body or very much attracted with that person

I also believe it is love.
But there still is some confusion, a mild one though, to clear that,
Can anybody tell what is the opposite of awe?
If we have a right word opposite to awe, it will clear the confusion.
