Your last draw was a draw on timeout with insufficient material to mate. Black ran out of time and can't win.
The rules the site use to determine if the side with time can win on time only look at the material the side with time has, and a king and knight is considered insufficient material to win in that case. The site does not use the FIDE implementation of mate possible by any series of legal moves
