The Achilles' heel is a metaphor

It's a character flaw for two heels,
a mayor and a city lawyer

as USED IN A SENTENCE
THE MAYOR'S ACHILLES' HEEL PROVED HOW MUCH OF A HEEL SHE WAS, IS AND FOREVER SHALL BE WHEN SHE TOLD THE CITY SOLICITOR TO HEEL LIKE THE MANGY MUTT THAT HE IS!


old-fashioned informal a person who treats other people badly and unfairly: I felt like a real heel when I saw how I'd upset her.
