There was no risk for becoming pregnant this way. However, high stress levels can cause a delay in the start of your period.
During periods of stress, the body produces more of the hormone called cortisol. In response, the body is triggered to shut down non-essential functions. The menstrual cycle is one such function.
Try as best as you can to relax. Your period should start.
