C Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is 'worry' because it creates a meaningful contrast with 'desire'. The sentence suggests that kings, having power and wealth, have few things to desire, but they have many responsibilities and concerns that cause worry. 'Crave' and 'long' are too similar to 'desire', while 'apprehend' (meaning to arrest or understand) does not fit the context.
