You seem to be dancing around some inconvenient facts. It sounds like you made an appointment to trade money for sex but were careful not to say so expressly when you set it up. People who have such conversations usually know (from an advertisement, word of mouth, etc.) that there will be a price involved, and how much it will be. That price is part of their agreement whether it comes up in the conversation or not.
Even if we assume that your arrangements would otherwise qualify as a contract and even if your failure to show up was a breach, the law will not enforce a contract to do something illegal. So it sounds like you don't owe the woman anything -- not because you avoided mentioning money when you spoke, but because prostitution is against the law.
Please note: Because your question is vague, it's possible that my answer would be different if I had better information about what happened.
