That's a good question. "べつに" means "not at all" or "not really" basically.
But compared to "全く〜ない" with "べつ〜ない", "べつに" sounds like it has some emotional connotations.
Japanese people use it often when they're angry, they want to hide something or something like that.

@suplexcity thank you for your help!

What about under this context:

Senpai thought she was shaken over this, writing a personal novel for her as a confession where she is demonstrated as such. After the heat of the moment and although she is incredibly touched by the book, she (as a fellow author) critiques this part of the book, saying “私の心はべつに先輩と高科さんとの間では揺れ動いたりしてないです”。In a matter-of-fact way. Not foreshadowing whatsoever by the narration is added to alude that this will creep up again in the series (the light novel series is complete).

Under this context, does the sentence still imply the heroine was a little shaken but not too much or not at all?

@Goldsmithy
We can't know what the author of this story implied by the line exactly and if this story is from an anime or something, the voice is also a hint, but just under this text context the heroine could be shaken too much but she hide it pretending to be not shaken.

"べつに(別に)" here means "particularly". Note, however, that it must be followed by a negative expression, so that we have "not particularly". E.g.:

僕は、昨日の事、別に気にしてないよ。
I don't particularly care about what happened yesterday.

あの件が上手くいかなくても、別に構わない。
I don't mind much even if that deal wouldn't go well.

今度の契約の件は、別に気にしなくてもいいよ。
You don't have to worry much about the contract of the current deal.
