Welcome to HCM.
wakeing after 7 days is too late.Pills are available for unsafe sex which is effective only within 72 hours.Now you have to wait for her next period,if it is not in time then go for urine pregnancy test.if it is positive worry starts for you than consult gynaecologist.

The usual Post-coital pill works within 3 days. I would recommend that she get tested using a Urine pregnancy test to confirm. You must exercise caution and adopt to proper contraceptive measures while having sex as required. Please discuss with the Gynaecologist who will give you enough options.
