Let $\alpha, \beta$ be the roots of the equation $x^2 - |a|x - |b| = 0$ such that $|\alpha| < |\beta|$. If $|a| < \beta - 1$,then the positive root of $\log_{|\alpha|} \left( \frac{x^2}{\beta^2} \right) - 1 = 0$ is

  • A
    $< |\alpha|$
  • B
    $< \alpha$
  • C
    $< \beta$
  • D
    $> \beta$
