A heptahedron is a closed 3-d shape with 7 polygonal faces. There are 34 topologically different convex heptahedra and, since none of these are regular, the term is ambiguous. There can be:

A heptahedron is a seven-faced polyhedron. The number of pairs of parallel faces in a heptahedron can vary depending on its specific shape and configuration. For example, a regular heptahedron, such as a truncated triangular prism, may have pairs of parallel faces, while other irregular heptahedra may not have any. Therefore, the answer is not fixed and can range from zero to multiple pairs based on the specific heptahedron in question.
A pentagonal heptahedron is a heptahedron comprising two pentagons which are joined to one another by five quadrilaterals. There is no requirement for the pentagons to be congruent nor for them to be parallel to one another.
A square has 2 pairs of opposite parallel lines.
There cannot be parallel lines in any [plane] triangles.
A triangular prism has 9 parallel lines
