Is Contraction After Safe Intercourse With A HVS-2 Genital Herpes Person Possible?

Last night I had intercourse with a woman that has hvs-2 genital herpes. I was wearing a condom until the last ten seconds of intercourse when it broke. She takes Valtrex daily. What are my chances of contraction and if I want to get tested how long should I wait?
