Hi,
If you have 26-day cycles, your ovulation would fall on the 12th day of cycle. Though you had unprotected intercourse around that period, the emergency pill, if taken within the stipulated time, would help. Still, it is better to be cautious and use a regular contraception. Use of emergency pill should be restricted to only a couple of incidents in a year as it alters the hormonal milieu badly. For the time being, please wait for your next period and if you do not see it even after 10-14 days, see a gynecologist for further evaluation and advice. Hope this helps.
