Luckily, you are a tempo ahead in the race to the center. Simply, play Ke5 and tell your opponent you are playing King of the Hill. Game over.

But white plays kd4# if I do that.

Yes, and now, since the kings are in direct contact, the game transforms into atomic chess. That's a tough one to evaluate.

I am pretty sure that Google made a NN that could play atomic chess.
