'infuriates' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with human feelings as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'fresh' indicates an anagram (a fresh re-ordering of the letters).
'demands' with letters rearranged gives 'MADDENS'.

'with' is the link.
